History of Keno

  According to an ancient scroll, keno history started in China over 2000 years ago. It was a man named Cheung Leung, who invented this game of chance wanting to save his city. With the residents refusing to give any more financial support towards the war fund, the army quickly ran out of supplies and the city was in danger. Leung's game produced enough revenue to supply his army with all that they needed, and so the city was saved. In the years that followed, the game spread vastly throughout China, and raised enough money to fund the building of the Great Wall, which has become a world-renowned wonder. The game became known as the White Pigeon Game because pigeons were used to communicate the winning results of the game from the greater cities to the small villages in the country.
 Leung's version of the game differed slightly from the one we know and enjoy nowadays. Instead of using the numbers 1 through 80 on the ticket, each field was represented with a character, all of which were taken from the famous poem 'The Thousand Character Classic'. Many years ago, the poem was used as a means of teaching children reading and writing skills. The fact that not one of the thousand characters was mentioned more than once was recognized as a great achievement. The characters were organized in a way that rhymed and made the poem easier to remember but being able to recite it on your own was a skill in itself. The poem was so popular throughout China that some people used it as a way of counting from one to a thousand. So, having used the first 80 characters from the poem, Leung did in fact use one through eighty as they are represented today.
 Compared to the ancient times, modern Keno rules are sufficiently easier. Every evening the draw is held, where 20 numbers is drawn out of 80. You could choose from 2 to 10 numbers and rise bet from 2 to 10 times. Keno is the game of selection. If among the drawn numbers are numbers that you have choosen - you win! Prizes reach from 3 to 3 000 000 Hrn!
