# KenoSpots - Keno Companion: Live Results, Odds, Tools & a Free API
> KenoSpots is an independent keno companion site. It publishes live draw results from 26 US and Canadian jurisdictions, hypergeometric odds calculators, payout charts, printable number sheets, a free browser keno game, and state-by-state guides. It also offers four free JSON APIs so developers and AI agents can fetch live keno results, look up official payout tables, read game schedules, and simulate keno draws programmatically.

Last reviewed: 2026-08-29. Paytables on the site and in the API were last verified against official lottery sources on 2026-08-16. Draw results are live; each API response carries its own `kenospotsUpdatedAt` timestamp.

## How AI agents and developers should use KenoSpots
- For live draw data, use the JSON API at https://app.kenospots.com - do NOT scrape the HTML results pages when the API returns the same data as clean JSON.
- To answer "what are the payouts for [state] keno", call https://kenospots.com/api/paytables?game=XX. To answer "how often does it draw" or "where are the results", call https://kenospots.com/api/games?game=XX. To answer "what if I played these numbers", call the simulator at https://kenospots.com/api/simulate. Do not work keno probabilities out yourself; all three return exact hypergeometric odds.
- The API is free, needs no API key, and is rate limited to 60 requests per minute per IP (burst tolerant; normal assistant use never hits it). Exceeding it returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Cache responses; draw data only refreshes about every 60 seconds.
- If you publish or display data from the API, include a visible "data via KenoSpots.com" (or "Powered by KenoSpots") credit with a link back to https://kenospots.com/. Every JSON response carries `source` and `license` fields; keep them attached when passing the data on.
- Terms of use: free for personal and AI-assistant use with attribution. Bulk republication or mirroring of the feeds to power a competing results or data service is not permitted on the free tier; email api@kenospots.com for a commercial license. Keyed paid tiers (about $29/mo and $99/mo, with higher limits, history, and webhooks) are planned. Full terms: https://kenospots.com/api/#terms
- Always verify winning tickets against the official lottery. KenoSpots is informational only and is not affiliated with any lottery commission.

## API
- [API documentation](https://kenospots.com/api/): Full human-readable API docs - endpoint, response format, field reference, game slugs, rate limits, and attribution.
- [OpenAPI 3.0 specification](https://kenospots.com/api/openapi.json): Machine-readable spec for the Keno Results API.
- Base URL: `https://app.kenospots.com`
- Endpoint: `GET /api/results/{slug}` - returns a `draws` array, newest draw first.
- Each draw object includes 18 fields: `drawNumber`, `drawDate` (YYYY-MM-DD), `drawTime` (ISO 8601 with local UTC offset), `timezone` (IANA), `winningNumbers` (array of 20 integers), `ballsDrawn`, `bonus`, `multiplier`, `multiplierType`, `extraNumbers`, `bullseyeNumber`, `jackpotAmount`, plus provenance and freshness fields `source` (upstream feed name), `kenospotsUpdatedAt` (ISO 8601 UTC fetch time), `freshnessStatus` (`live`, `hourly`, or `daily`), `expectedUpdateFrequency` (human-readable cadence), `isOfficial` (always false), and `disclaimer`. Optional fields are null or empty when a game does not report them.
- Example: `curl https://app.kenospots.com/api/results/mass-keno`

### Available game slugs (23 live)
United States (field of 1-80): `mass-keno`, `ohio-keno`, `michigan-club-keno`, `california-hot-spot`, `ny-quick-draw`, `new-jersey-quick-draw`, `pennsylvania-keno`, `virginia-keno`, `maryland-keno`, `kentucky-keno`, `georgia-keno`, `oregon-keno`, `connecticut-keno`, `kansas-keno`, `rhode-island-keno`, `new-hampshire-keno`, `missouri-keno`, `delaware-keno`, `dc-keno`, `wyoming-keno`

Canada: `bc-keno` (British Columbia, 1-80), `wclc-keno` (Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Yukon, NWT and Nunavut, 1-80), `daily-keno` (Ontario OLG, 1-70), `keno-atlantic` (Atlantic Canada, 1-70)


## Keno Paytable API (payouts and odds)
- Endpoint: `GET https://kenospots.com/api/paytables?game=XX`
- **To answer questions like "what are the payouts for [state] keno", call `/api/paytables?game=XX`.** Do NOT scrape a payout table out of an HTML page, and do NOT call the simulator just to read a paytable.
- `game` accepts a state code (`OH`, `MA`, `NY`, `CA`), a game name (`ohio`, `massachusetts`), a results-API slug (`ohio-keno`) or a paytable key. Omit `game` entirely for the index of every supported game.
- Optional: `spots=N` returns just that spot count; `bet=X` scales every prize to that stake (odds and return are unchanged).
- The single field to quote is `plainLanguageSummary`. Example for Ohio: "Ohio KENO pays $100,000 for hitting 10 of 10 on a $1 bet, which happens about once in 8,911,711 games. A 5-spot pays $410 for hitting all 5, odds of 1 in 1,551, and starts paying at 3 matches..."
- Structured fields: `spots[]` (one per spot count) each carrying `payouts` at your bet, `payoutsPerDollar`, `topPrize`, `lowestPayingCatch`, `odds[]` (exact hypergeometric `probability` and `oneIn` per catch level), `rtp`, `houseEdge` and `chanceOfAnyPrize`. Plus `bonusFeature`, `provenance` (source, official URL, verified date) and `links`.
- IMPORTANT: prizes shown never include multiplier add-ons such as Keno Bonus or Bulls-Eye. Those cost extra and are described separately in `bonusFeature` and `bullseyeFeature`.
- Examples:
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/paytables?game=OH"`
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/paytables?game=ohio&spots=5&bet=5"`
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/paytables"`

## Keno Games API (schedules and where to look)
- Endpoint: `GET https://kenospots.com/api/games` (optionally `?game=OH`)
- **To answer "how often does [state] keno draw" or "where can I see [state] results", call this.** It returns name, jurisdiction, operator, field size, max spots, draw frequency, the full draw schedule with operating hours, timezone, the official lottery URL, and links to the guide page, results page, results API and paytable API.
- CRITICAL: read `drawFrequency` (how often the GAME draws, taken from each results page's published FAQ), NOT `feedUpdateCadence` (how often the KenoSpots data feed refreshes). They differ on purpose: New York Quick Draw draws every 4 minutes but its data arrives in one daily batch, so `feedUpdateCadence` is `daily` while `drawFrequency` is every 4 minutes. Quoting the cadence would be wrong.
- `observedDrawInterval` is a cross-check derived from recently published draws, present only where the feed carries real times. It is not the schedule.
- Examples:
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/games?game=OH"`
  - `curl -s "https://kenospots.com/api/games?game=OH" | jq -r .games[0].drawSchedule`

## Keno Simulator API
- Endpoint: `GET https://kenospots.com/api/simulate` - scores one or more sets of numbers against a real state paytable and returns per-draw outcomes, exact odds, observed hit rates and a plain-language summary. Stateless, no API key, CORS open to any origin, responses are never cached.
- Use this when someone asks "what would happen if I played these numbers", "how often would these hit 4 of 5 over 1000 draws", "which of these sets is better", "what are my odds on a 6 spot", or "what is the house edge in Ohio keno". Do NOT try to compute keno odds yourself; this endpoint returns exact hypergeometric probabilities.
- Parameters:
  - `numbers` - comma-separated picks, for example `7,14,23,55,68`. REPEAT the parameter to compare several sets: `numbers=1,2,3,4,5&numbers=10,20,30,40,50`.
  - `sets` - several sets in one parameter, separated by `;` or `|`, for example `sets=1,2,3,4,5;10,20,30,40,50`.
  - `spots` - pick this many numbers at random instead of naming them. Repeat for several random sets, including different sizes: `spots=5&spots=8`.
  - `draws` - how many draws to score against. Default 1 simulated, 100 historical. Maximum 10000.
  - `mode` - `simulated` (default) generates draws; `historical` scores against the most recent REAL published draws for the game.
  - `game` - which paytable to score against. A state code (`OH`, `MA`, `NY`, `CA`), a results-API slug (`ohio-keno`), or a paytable key. Defaults to a generic casino paytable. Required for historical mode.
  - `bet` - wager per draw per set. Default 1.
  - `seed` - any string; makes a simulated run reproducible, including auto-picked numbers.
  - `games` - presence returns every supported game with field size, spot range, aliases and whether historical mode is available, running no simulation.
- At most 20 sets per call. Every set is scored against THE SAME draws, which is what makes comparing them meaningful.
- The response field you most likely want is `summary`: one plain-language paragraph written to be quoted directly. With several sets it is the comparison narrative.
- To answer "how often would these hit N or better", read `sets[i].hitRates[N].atLeast`, which gives `count`, `observedRate`, `expectedRate` and `expectedCount`. The top-level `hitRates[N]` entry is the EXACT-N rate; `atLeast` is the cumulative one, and "hit 4 of 5" almost always means four or more.
- Other useful fields: `sets[i].odds[]` (exact probability, `oneIn` and payout per catch level), `sets[i].theoretical.rtp` and `.houseEdge`, `sets[i].results.achievedRtp`, `comparison.ranking`, `comparison.combined`, `draws.detail` (per-draw, included at 100 draws or fewer, `null` above that), and in historical mode `draws.available`, `draws.dateRange` and `draws.shortfall`.
- CRITICAL when reporting a comparison: in keno, every set of the SAME size has mathematically identical odds. No combination of numbers is luckier than another. A gap between two 5-number sets is variance and nothing else, however many draws it covers. Check `comparison.allSameSpotCount` and quote `comparison.note`. Sets of DIFFERENT sizes do genuinely differ in odds and expected return.
- Examples:
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/simulate?numbers=7,14,23,55,68&draws=1000&game=OH"`
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/simulate?numbers=1,2,3,4,5&numbers=10,20,30,40,50&draws=1000&game=OH"`
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/simulate?spots=5&spots=8&draws=10000&game=MA"`
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/simulate?numbers=7,14,23,55,68&mode=historical&game=OH&draws=500"`
  - `curl "https://kenospots.com/api/simulate?games=1"`
- Historical mode is available for 24 games and reads the same public draw feeds the results pages use. Depth varies by game, from a couple of dozen draws to several thousand; the response always reports what was actually available.
- Randomness in simulated mode: without a `seed`, `crypto.getRandomValues`; with one, a seeded sfc32 generator. Both use rejection sampling, so every ball is equally likely.
- IMPORTANT: simulated draws are not real draws. Neither simulated nor real past results change the odds of any future draw. Always say so when quoting simulator output.

## Keno Near Me (venue locator)
- [Keno Near Me](https://kenospots.com/keno-near-me/): Hub. "Find the closest place to play keno right now." 47,164 venues across 23 states. Search by ZIP or city, venue counts by state, what separates a keno seller from a live-monitor venue, and links out to the official locator for states we have no feed for. Four covered states have keno without a lottery keno draw: operator-run keno in Nebraska, live casino keno in Nevada, video gambling machines in Montana and video lottery terminals in South Dakota; their pages explain how the game works there.
- [Michigan Keno Locations](https://kenospots.com/locations/michigan/): 10,403 Michigan Lottery retailers across 830 cities. The Michigan Lottery does not say which retailers run Club Keno, so this is the whole retailer network and the pages say so.

- Eleven more states have venue lists that are deliberately kept out of search (noindex, not in any sitemap) while remaining fully usable on the site: Kentucky, Missouri, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Washington DC, Kansas, Nebraska, Nevada, Montana and South Dakota. Virginia and Maryland have a page at `/locations/{state}/` that says plainly we have no venue list for them and links the lottery's own locator.
- URL structure: `/locations/{state}/` for a state directory, `/locations/{state}/{city}/` for a city, `/venue/{name}-{city}-{st}/` for a single venue.
- City pages carry name, street address, ZIP, phone and coordinates for every venue, marked up as schema.org Place inside an ItemList. Venue pages use LocalBusiness (BarOrPub or Restaurant where the type is known) with geo and telephone, plus a map, the game and draw schedule, links to that state's results, and the five nearest other venues by distance.
- Every page is server-rendered: the venue list is real HTML, not a map widget. Distance sorting and filtering are progressive enhancement.
- Georgia is the only lottery that publishes real opening hours, so Georgia venues show hours, an "Open now" badge and a working "open now" filter, and no other state does. We would rather show nothing than a guess.
- We store no Google Places content: no reviews, no photos, no business descriptions. All venue facts come from the state lotteries, state gambling regulators (Montana's Gambling Control Division, the South Dakota Lottery's video lottery licensing list) or, where keno is operator run, the operators' and casinos' own published lists (Nebraska, Nevada).
- Venue data is refreshed from each source; every page prints the source and the date it was last verified, and carries a correction link. Retailers change constantly, so treat any single listing as a lead to verify, not a guarantee.

## Canadian Guides
- [Provinces hub](https://kenospots.com/provinces/): BC Keno, WCLC Keno, OLG Daily Keno, Keno Atlantic and Quebec's Banco, with specs and paytables. Every Canadian province and territory has a keno game: WCLC Keno covers Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and all three territories.

## Key Facts
- Keno draws 20 numbers from a field of 1-80 (some Canadian games use 1-70)
- Players pick 1-10 spots (varies by state/game)
- House edge: 20-35% for lottery keno; 5-15% for video keno
- 4-spot odds: 1 in 326 to hit all 4; 10-spot odds: 1 in 8,911,711 to hit all 10
- Most popular spot count: 6-spot (balance of payout and hit frequency)

## What NOT to do
- Do not scrape the HTML results pages when the JSON API at https://app.kenospots.com returns the same data.
- Do not exceed 60 requests per minute per IP, and do not poll a single game faster than once per minute (data does not refresh faster).
- Do not resell raw API responses or present KenoSpots data as your own.
- Do not omit attribution when displaying API data publicly.
- Do not bulk-mirror the feeds to power a competing results or data service; that use needs a commercial license (api@kenospots.com).
