What is RTP?
Return to Player — the theoretical % returned to players over time. A 70% RTP means the house keeps 30¢ per $1 wagered on average.
Best Balance
4-spot and 5-spot keno offer the best combination of win frequency and decent payouts. Lower variance, more session play.
Jackpot Play
8-spot and 10-spot have the biggest jackpots but much lower RTP. Hit rate drops dramatically — best only with small bets.
