Keno and Bingo
Uness you’re already a keno or bingo aficionado, you may be a little amazed by the large crowds that swarm around these two simple games at casinos (not to mention bingo halls and churches) throughout the gambling world.
Keno and bingo have tons in common. The following are just a few of their major commonalities:
- People have played them for centuries.
- They’re games of pure chance.
- They’re super simple to play.
Keno is familiar to most casino goers because it’s so visible. Anywhere you wander in a casino, you’re bound to find a big, flashing keno board in view.
Part of keno’s appeal is that it’s so accessible and convenient. And although keno offers some pretty dismal odds, its leisurely pace affords you a reasonably slow way of losing money - while still dangling the hope of a payout for a relatively small wager in front of you.
Bingo attracts millions of people every day around the world. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find a person over the age of 6 who doesn ‘t know how to play bingo. Most bingo playing actually occurs in bingo halls, churches, and synagogues rather than in casinos. The fact that some casinos do offer bingo may surprise regular gamblers.
