How to Play Online Keno at English Harbour

If you start playing your online keno game for the first time, your keno table will be empty and the default amount of your wager is active. However, if you exit the game for some reasons, your current game status will be saved and when you open the game again, your previous game status will be shown.

In selecting the amount that you want to wager, you should click on one of the COIN buttons. Afterwards, you can select and mark up to 15 numbers on your keno ticket for your selected spots. The "Total Numbers Played" field on your screen displays how many spots you had chosen, and based on how many marks you selected, the paytable will change.

Now it's time to start the fun in your online keno game. Click on one of the PLAY buttons to do it, and you will see the balls that are bouncing and drops from the drum randomly. Each ball that drops from the drum rolls across the screen, and you will have your winning number. The number on each ball that drops will be displayed on your screen once it stops completely.

If you have a catch, the following three things happen:

1. On your Keno ticket, your mark changes color,
2. The ball and number change color.
3. The paytable highlights to show that a catch was made.

20 numbers will be drawn, and once these 20 numbers are completed, you can count how many catches you got and you can see how much you have won in the PAYOUT field in the screen.

You can also choose to play 5 or 10 games. If you want to play these, then you should click the PLAY 5 or PLAY 10 buttons. Once you do so, the balls then roll off the table and new numbers will be called. This will start again after each game until you have completed the 5 or 10 plays. Your account balance in the online casino will be adjusted after each game, the paytable shows the payout (number of tokens), and how many catches remain.

To play again click on the CLEAR, PLAY 1, PLAY 5 or PLAY 10 button.
