When you look at all the specialty games available at Slots.lv, Keno and Bingo stand out as two very similar “lottery-style” games that share a wide audience. They both involve drawing and matching numbers for big cash prizes. Neither requires any math skills, or hardly any skill for that matter. If you can operate a computer or mobile device, you can move from Keno to Bingo and back again without skipping a beat.
Having said that, there are some key differences between Keno and Bingo that you should know about before you play at Slots.lv. Here are a few of the most important ones to consider:
The Cards
When you play Keno online at Slots.lv, there is only one card available: a 10-by-8 grid featuring the numbers 1 through 80. Bingo can be played using cards of many different dimensions. There’s the standard 5-by-5 cards used in American Bingo, the 3-by-9 tickets familiar to European Bingo players, and the mini-cards used in both 30-Ball Bingo and 80-Ball Bingo.
The Draw
Keno may have only the one playing grid, but in this game, you get to choose your numbers – or you can let the computer do it randomly by pressing the Quick Pick button. With Bingo, you start with whatever numbers appear on your card. Once it’s time to draw, 20 numbers will be generated in Keno no matter what; in Bingo, you have multiple options for how many numbers to draw, depending on which game you’re playing and how big the card is.
The Betting
Slots.lv lets you wager between one penny and $10 every time you play Keno, and you can play either one, five, or 10 games at once. Things run a bit differently with Bingo, where you start by purchasing anywhere from one to 100 cards, at denominations between one cent and $1 apiece.
There are other differences between Keno and Bingo that you’ll encounter when you play live; for example, you might be able to get a bulk discount on Bingo cards, and you can get an edge on the competition by purchasing different cards than your opponents do – the fewer cards that are in play for a specific game, the better your chances of winning. Otherwise, if lottery-style games are your thing, you should find more than enough similarities between the two to enjoy playing both Keno and Bingo at Slots.lv.
