Complete guide to Michigan Lottery's Club Keno — how it works, the unique 22-number draw, Kicker multiplier, The Jack progressive jackpot, draw schedule, odds, and where to play in Michigan.
Michigan Club Keno is operated by the Michigan Lottery and is one of the most feature-rich state lottery keno games in the country. It's available at bars and restaurants across Michigan, where draws are displayed live on Club Keno monitors. You can also play online through the Michigan Lottery's iLottery platform and mobile app.
Club Keno draws happen approximately every 3.5 minutes, making it one of the faster state keno games. Players pick 1–10 spots from the numbers 1–80, and 22 numbers are drawn — more than the standard 20 drawn in most other state keno games. This extra coverage gives players a slightly higher chance of catching their numbers.
Most state lottery keno games draw 20 numbers from 80. Michigan Club Keno draws 22 numbers — 2 extra balls per draw. This meaningfully improves your odds of catching spots compared to a standard 20-draw game. For example, in a 10-spot game, catching 5 of 10 numbers is noticeably more likely when 22 numbers are drawn versus 20.
Michigan Club Keno offers a Kicker add-on that multiplies your non-jackpot winnings. When you add Kicker to your ticket, a multiplier (2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x) is randomly selected at the time of each draw. If you win a non-top prize, your payout is multiplied by that value.
Kicker costs an additional amount equal to your base wager. It applies to all winning combinations except the maximum prize for your spot count, which is typically capped regardless.
The Jack is Michigan Club Keno's progressive jackpot feature — one of the few progressive jackpot elements in any state lottery keno game. Here's how it works:
The Jack makes Michigan Club Keno particularly appealing for players who enjoy the excitement of a growing jackpot on top of standard keno gameplay.
Michigan is one of the few states where you can play lottery keno online legally. The Michigan Lottery's iLottery platform and mobile app offer Club Keno digitally, meaning you can play from your phone or computer anywhere in Michigan. This is a significant convenience advantage over states where keno requires an in-person retailer visit.
Michigan's 22-ball draw means the odds are slightly better than a standard 20-ball game. Payouts are for a $1 base bet.

Michigan's 22-draw format gives you meaningfully better odds of catching your spots compared to the 20-draw standard. This is one of the most player-friendly state keno formats in the country.
Playing Club Keno on the Michigan Lottery app is convenient, but the 3.5-minute draw cycle makes it easy to play far more games than planned. Set a deposit or session limit through the app's responsible gaming tools.
Adding The Jack gives you a progressive jackpot shot but increases your cost per draw. If you're playing for the jackpot experience, it's fun. If you're playing for regular wins, skip it and focus on spot selection.
