The reason I created a special page for their keno game, when I already have a page on keno, is they added quite a few side bets. As in standard keno, 20 balls will be drawn, without replacement, from a hopper containing balls numbered 1 to 80. Depending on the bet the player makes, he may be asked to picks his own numbers before the draw. One of the popular side bets associated with the SA Lotteries keno is the Keno Coin Toss. In the Keno Coin Toss you bet that the majority of the numbers will be between 1 to 40, 41 to 80, or 10 numbers drawn in each of the two aforementioned categories. This same keno game is available to residents in the Australian Capitol Territory (ACT). Play Real Money Keno. Real money keno is a lottery style game played in land-based casinos in one of two major formats: live and video keno. Terminals can be placed to allow electronic gaming for real money in local gambling spots. I’ve been playing Keno at land based casinos for about 15 years and on-line for about 10 years. I’ve never found any on-line casino (playing for real $’s) that offers mult-card Keno, e.g. 4 card or 20 card. They just don’t exist and I’ve signed up and played at over 100 on-line casinos. The majority only offer single card Keno or no Keno.
If you bet $10 for each round and choose 5 draws, then that’s a $50 bet total. Keno online operates on both individual draws and predetermined buttons marked “play 5” or “play 10” for instance. Pushing them automatically ensures that you play 5 or 10 rounds respectively according to your wager amount. Keno winning numbers Special days.

- The player should choose two Bonus Spots from among the numbers he didn't already pick for the base game.
- The game will draw 20 random numbers, as in conventional keno.
- If less than two of the Bonus Spots are hit, then the game is scored as in conventional keno.
- If both Bonus Spots are hit, then the player will play the Pick-a-Prize Bonus.
- In the Pick-a-Prize Bonus there is a grid of 19 icons, with the following distribution. Prizes are relative to the bet amount.
Prize Count 1x 11 2x 1 3x 1 5x 1 10x 1 15x 1 Alien Attack 3 Total 19 - If the player picks an Alien Attack, then he will play the Alien Attack bonus (a bonus within a bonus).

Notes:
* Unfortunately, I do not know much about the random prizes, except they can be 1, 2, 5, 10, or 20x the amount bet.
This clearly calls for an example, so I posted some play for you on YouTube. The Alien Attack bonus begins at the 4:00 point.

I will probably do an analysis of this game. For now, do you have any questions or corrections on the rules?
The question for the poll is would you play Alien Attack Keno?I just came across the game Alien Attack Keno at VideoPoker.com. Sorry, a Gold membership is required for that one. The rules are rather involved, so bear with me.

The question for the poll is would you play Alien Attack Keno? Is this out on the casinos yet? I have a feeling it would get fairly popular with keno players.

Not that I'm aware of. Usually anything at VideoPoker.com is going to get placed.
I agree that it looks like a good game and will probably be popular with Keno players. I would expect the hold percentages to be 8% to 12%.

Game 1 of 3 -- 04:22 -- 0 cows and 1 alien hit, thus a cow is abducted.
Game 2 of 3 -- 04:29 -- 2 cows and 1 alien hit. Because there is a mixture, players wins 2*1=2 prizes. These prizes are 8 and 8, which are both 1x the amount bet. He also gets the rescue of a cow because at least one of each was hit.
Game 3 of 5 -- 04:36 -- 2 cows and 0 aliens hit. Because only cows were hit, the player gets a 3x multiplier for two cows. However, he won zero in the base game, so the multiplier didn't help.
Game 5 of 7 -- 04:44 -- 1 cow and 0 aliens hit. Because only cows were hit, the player gets a 2x multiplier for one cow. However, he won zero in the base game, so the multiplier didn't help.
Game 6 of 8 -- 04:48 -- 2 cows and 2 aliens hit. Because there is a mixture, players wins 2*2=4 prizes. These prizes are 24, 24, 16, and 40, which are 3x, 3x, 2x, and 5x the amount bet. Since he already has all three cows, there is no cow rescue.
Game 7 of 9 -- 05:03 -- 1 cow and 1 alien. Because there is a mixture, players wins 1*1=1 prizes. This prize is 16, which is 2x the amount bet. Since he already has all three cows, there is no cow rescue.
Game 8 or 10 -- 05:10 -- 1 cow and 2 aliens. Because there is a mixture, players wins 1*2=2 prizes. These prizes are 24 and 8, which are 3x and 1x the amount bet. Since the player already has all three cows, there is no cow rescue.
Game 9 of 11 -- 05:19 -- 1 cow and 1 alien. Because there is a mixture, players wins 1*1=1 prizes. This prize is 40, which is 5x the amount bet. Since the player already has all three cows, there is no cow rescue.
Game 10 of 12 -- 05:25 -- 0 cows and 1 alien hit, thus a cow is abducted.
Game 11 of 12 -- 05:32 -- 1 cow and 1 alien. Because there is a mixture, players wins 1*1=1 prizes. This prize is 8, which is 1x the amount bet. Since the player was down to two cows, a cow is rescued, to bring him back to three cows.
Game 12 of 14 -- 05:38 -- 1 cow and 2 aliens. Because there is a mixture, players wins 1*2=2 prizes. These prizes are 80 and 40, which are 10x and 5x the amount bet. Since the player already has all three cows, there is no cow rescue.
Game 13 of 15 -- 05:49 -- 0 cows and 1 alien hit, thus a cow is abducted, to bring the player down to two cows.
Game 15 of 16 -- 05:56 -- 1 cow and 0 aliens hit. Because only cows were hit, the player gets a 2x multiplier for one cow. However, he won zero in the base game, so the multiplier didn't help.
Game 17 of 18 -- 06:07 -- 1 cow and 0 aliens hit. Because only cows were hit, the player gets a 2x multiplier for one cow. The base game win was 16 (or 2x the amount bet). This gets doubled to a win of 32 (or 4x the amount bet).
Game 18 of 19 -- 06:18 -- 1 cow and 2 aliens hit. Because there is a mixture, players wins 1*2=2 prizes. These prizes are 8, 40, , which are 1x, and 5x the amount bet. Since the player had two cows before the bet, a cow is rescued, bringing him back to three cows. It should be noted the graphics show the cow previously on the 54 square was rescued and then his number was hit, making it appear that two cows were hit. However, the cow on 54 was not truly hit because he was abducted at the beginning of the free game. I believe this to be a graphical error.
Game 19 of 21 -- 06:23 -- 2 cows and 2 aliens hit. Because there is a mixture, players wins 2*2=4 prizes. These prizes are 80, 40, 40, and 24, which are 10x, 5x, 5x, and 3x the amount bet.
Game 21 of 23 -- 06:43 -- 0 cows and 1 alien hit, thus a cow is abducted, bringing the player from 3 to 2 cows.
Game 22 of 23 -- 06:51 -- 2 cows and 0 aliens hit. Because only cows were hit, the player gets a 3x multiplier for two cows. However, he won zero in the base game, so the multiplier didn't help.
Game 23 of 24 -- 06:54 -- 0 cows and 1 alien hit, thus a cow is abducted, bringing the player from 2 to 1 cow.
Game 24 of 24 -- 06:58 -- 0 cows and 2 aliens hit, thus a cow is abducted, bringing the player from 1 to 0 cows, ending the bonus. The total bonus win is 688 credits, or 86x the amount bet.
Here is a distribution of the prizes received for a mixture of cows and aliens:
1x: 5
2x: 2
3x: 4
5x: 6
10x: 2
The average prize is 71/18 = 3.944x the amount bet.
