Lottery games are among some of the oldest ways there are to gamble. They were used in Ancient Rome as a way to raise funds without unpopular tax increases. Great societies think alike because, in Ancient China, the government had struck upon the same idea in the form of keno. Keno is a lottery game where players select a group of numbers and win prizes if any drawn numbers match their selections. Unlike many state lotteries in the U.S., it is not necessary to get the order of the numbers correct – players just need matches.
Super Keno is an online keno game that has found plenty of fans at mBit Casino. It was developed by a company called KA Gaming, which has created over 700 games. The game screen background is green like money, and a friendly little treasure chest overflowing with gold sits under the paytable to signal what is possible with a little luck.
In this article, we’ll cover the details of this fun online keno game.
How to play Super Keno online
Playing Super Keno is quite similar to other versions of the game for those who have played them before. The main idea is to pick numbers and hope that they will match the random numbers drawn by the game. For Super Keno, you have to pick ten.
Number options go from 1 to 80, so you’ve got a lot of choices if you like to pick based on birthdays or other special dates like anniversaries. To select a number, just click or tap on it, and it will light up in blue. If you’d rather leave things entirely up to luck, you can click the Quick Pick button at the bottom of the screen. If you make any mistakes, just click or tap the Clear button to remove your selections so that you can repick. When you have the selections you like, click the yellow play button, and the round will start.
During a round of Super Keno online, the game will select ten numbers at random. For any matches, the blue boxes will light up. For other drawn numbers that don’t match your selections, the number box border will turn white. The payout chart on the left will have a highlighted row showing how many matches you had. Speaking of which, let’s talk a little about Super Keno payouts.
The Super Keno payout table
Players get paid based on how many numbers they match. In general, the more matches you have, the more money you get. Here’s how the payouts scale with each correct guess:
- 1 match: .2x your wager
- Two matches: .1x
- .1x
- 1x
- 3x
- 16x
- 130x
- 1,080x
- 3,100x
- 10,000x
As you can see, the top-level payouts get massive. Playing $10 rounds of Super Keno will get you a hundred-thousand-dollar top prize if you get lucky in a big way.
It is important to note that the payouts are not cumulative. You don’t add up each level. You simply get the prize listed at the number of matches you reach, and that’s it. Getting four matches gets you a 1:1 payout, for example. You don’t get .1+.2+.2+1.
Now, let’s talk about winning.
Are there special numbers to focus on?
Many people who play the game wonder if there are Super Keno winning numbers to know about. This issue divides the community, mainly because fairly programmed keno games should not have any numbers that come up more often than others. However, there are a number of articles that assert that there are numbers that are favored by certain versions of keno.
At best, these numbers are only applicable to the lottery that provided the data. That is, if a particular state has a keno game that shows a very slight number preference over time, those “lucky numbers” would only apply to that version of keno. Each version would lead to a different data set. It is also important to note that, over time, these numbers should regress to the mean in terms of frequency.
For purposes of Super Keno, no such number set is known, which is a good thing. The game is programmed using a proper random number generator and shows no preferences for any digits in the selection set.

Super Keno strategy – how to maximize chances of winning
Given that there are no preferred numbers and game results are based on chance, there is no truly effective strategy for winning. You can play your lucky numbers over and over or simply go with quick picks. It should not have an effect on your results. Instead, you’re going to have to get lucky.
For many players, this is an advantage of lottery games online. Rather than having to sweat over optimal play and strategy (as you might in blackjack), you can simply relax and let fortune decide whether you’re getting paid or not. That said, you can still score large prizes in Super Keno.
Big wins and jackpots
Some people who play this game are looking for a massive payout. Dreams of a Super Keno jackpot actually can come true, thanks to the game’s huge payout table. As we described above, getting eight numbers correct already gives you a payout that is more than a thousand times your wager. Nine correct guesses result in a 3,100x prize. And for the big money, the 10,000x prize for ten correct guesses is fantastic. Jackpot hunters will definitely find the action they’re looking for in this game.
As always, it will take luck, but the rewards are there for those bold enough to try.
