krikya Keno — Pick Numbers, Match the Draw, Win Prizes
Keno is a game where you pick your own numbers and match them against the draw result. The more numbers you match, the bigger the prize — simple rules, but a new opportunity every round.
How tickets, cards and draws work in Keno
Each Keno round begins with a virtual card or ticket. The numbers are arranged from 1 to 80. The player picks anywhere from 1 to 10 numbers — this set of chosen numbers is called "spots" or "picks". If you pick 5 numbers, that is a "5-spot ticket".
Once your selection is made, the Keno engine uses a random number generator (RNG) to draw exactly 20 balls from the 80. The prize depends on how many of your chosen numbers appear among those 20. As soon as one round ends, the next can begin, so the game moves at a fast pace.
Many players in Dhaka think of Keno as similar to a lottery, but there are differences — here you decide the number of picks yourself and choose a specific bet amount. You can also find live Keno tables at krikya Casino, where you can watch the draw in front of a live host.

Winning patterns and number strategy
The core rule for winning in Keno is straightforward — the more of your chosen numbers match the draw, the bigger the prize. However, how many matches are needed to win a prize depends on how many spots you chose.
1–3 Spots
Picking fewer numbers gives a higher chance of matching, but a lower prize multiplier. Matching all of them returns a small to moderate amount.
4–6 Spots
Mid-range spots offer a balance — partial matches still pay a small prize, and matching all gives a notable return. The most popular range.
7–8 Spots
Prizes start from partial matches here, and matching most of them activates large multipliers. A favourite among patient players.
9–10 Spots
The chance of matching all numbers at the highest spot count is low, but the prize multiplier is very large. A single successful round can change the entire session's outcome.
A note on patterns: Every draw in Keno is completely independent — which numbers came up more or less often in the previous round has no effect on the next. Following "hot numbers" or "cold numbers" therefore offers no statistical advantage.
Prize structure — what you win for each number of matches
Keno prizes are determined by applying a specific multiplier to your bet amount. The level of the multiplier depends on how many spots you chose and how many of them matched the draw. The table below is given as an example for a standard 5-spot ticket — actual multipliers may vary slightly by variant.
| Pick (Spots) | Matched | Multiplier (approximate) | Prize description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 5/5 | 50× | Top prize |
| 5 | 4/5 | 8× | Large prize |
| 5 | 3/5 | 2× | Medium prize |
| 5 | 2/5 | 0× | No prize |
| 5 | 0/5 | 1× | No matches — special push bonus (in some variants) |
The multipliers above are illustrative — the pay table for each specific game can be found within the game itself.
Some Keno variants include a "bonus ball" feature — after the regular 20 balls, one extra bonus ball is drawn, and if it matches one of your picks, your prize is doubled. This feature sets certain variants apart from standard Keno. Outside of Keno, slot games offer different types of bonus rounds.
Stay within budget and play smart
Keno is a fast game — each round ends in just a few seconds, so if you are not keeping track of your budget, your balance can drop quickly. A few simple habits can help you keep the fun going while staying in control of your budget.
- Set a session budget: Before you start, decide on a limit in your mind — once that amount is gone, stop, whether you won or not.
- Smaller bets, more rounds: Instead of placing large bets each round, use smaller bets to play more rounds — this extends your playing time and gives you more chances to match across different rounds.
- Don't chase losses: Increasing your bet after a losing round to try to recover usually leads to even greater losses.
- Use auto-play carefully: Many Keno variants have auto-play — when it is running, rounds go by quickly, so make sure you set a limit before turning it on.
- Take breaks: Taking occasional breaks rather than playing for long stretches at a time helps keep your decision-making clear.
- Responsible gaming guidelines: Detailed information on setting limits is available on krikya's responsible gaming page.
Popular Keno variants
While the core structure of Keno is the same, different variants have differences in rules and features. Several variants are available at krikya, each with its own characteristics.
Classic Keno
The most familiar format. Pick your numbers from 1 to 80 and wait for the draw. Simple rules, a clear pay table — ideal for new players.
Speed Keno
Round time is reduced further, allowing more rounds per minute. Particularly popular with players who prefer quick results.
Power Keno
This variant includes a power ball feature. The first few balls drawn are treated as power balls, and matching them increases the prize by a significant amount.
Bonus Ball Keno
After the standard 20 balls, one extra bonus ball is drawn. If that ball falls within your picks, the prize is increased — sometimes doubled, sometimes even more.
Live Keno
Balls are drawn live from a studio by a host. The atmosphere is like a TV show, with live statistics on screen and a chat feature.
Multi-Card Keno
Multiple tickets or cards can be played in a single draw. Each card can have different picks, giving you multiple chances to win from one draw.
