South Dakota has keno several ways. The historic casino town of Deadwood, tribal casinos, and a statewide video lottery network all offer keno, even though there is no draw-style lottery keno game.
South Dakota does not run a monitor keno draw game like Massachusetts or Ohio. Instead, keno shows up at Deadwood casinos, tribal casinos, and on the state's video lottery terminals in bars and casinos across South Dakota.
Deadwood, the old gold rush town in the Black Hills, is South Dakota's casino hub. It has a strip of casinos offering slots, table games, and video keno machines. It is the most concentrated place to find keno in the state.
South Dakota is one of the states that runs video lottery terminals, machines placed in bars, taverns, and casinos statewide. Video keno is one of the games available on these terminals, alongside video poker and other machine games. That makes keno far easier to find in South Dakota than in states where it is locked inside casinos only.
Several tribal casinos operate across South Dakota, particularly in the central and western parts of the state. Many carry video keno on the floor.
Keno on South Dakota machines uses the standard 80-number, 20-draw format, so the catch odds are the same as keno everywhere. The paytable on a given terminal or machine sets the return. Video keno generally pays back more than draw-style lottery keno would. Compare spot counts with our odds calculator.
