Keno is a fun game played every few minutes, with entries starting from $1. The Keno game is available to SA Lotteries customers only through The Lott.
How to win
In every Keno draw, 20 numbers are randomly drawn from 80 numbers.
To win Keno, the numbers you’ve picked must match the numbers drawn. How much you win is based on how many numbers you’ve picked, how many of your numbers matched the winning numbers drawn, and how much you’ve played per game (between $1 and $100).
To win the Spot 10 jackpot, your ticket needs to match all 10 winning numbers in a single game. If there are no Spot 10 jackpot winners, the Spot 10 jackpot grows higher for the next draw.
To win Keno Coin Toss, you must correctly select Heads, Tails, or Evens based on where the numbers fall on the Keno screen grid.
How to play
The first step to playing Keno is deciding which game you want to play.
First, decide which Keno game you want to play.
- Keno Single is the classic way to play! Simply select between 1 to 10 of your favourite numbers to play for your chance to win.
- Keno Coin Toss can be added to a Keno game or played on its own. Guess where most of the drawn numbers will fall on the Keno grid – HEADS for the top half (numbers 1 to 40) or TAILS (numbers 41 to 80) for the bottom half – for your chance to double your win.
- Keno Combo is for those who are up for a challenge! Create number combinations with Keno Combo to give you more chances to win.
The next step to playing Keno is deciding if you want to play a QuickPick or a Marked Entry.
- A QuickPick is the easiest way to play, where the number of games you play is fixed and your numbers are randomly generated for you.
- A Marked Entry lets you choose what numbers you want to play and even lets you save them as a Favourite for next time. To complete a Marked Entry, grab a coupon in store and scan it at the counter.
Once you’ve got your Keno ticket ready, watch the live draw to see if your numbers match for the chance to win a cash prize!
