Keno on Stake
Pick numbers (up to 10), choose a risk level, watch the draw. Hits pay according to the risk table. Fastest round in the Originals catalogue.
Keno is a quick-pick title within the Stake casino games mix, between Hilo and Plinko.
Keno is the pick-numbers game with adjustable risk modes (classic, low, high). The hit-and-payout table changes per mode, so the right pick count depends on the risk profile you want.
Risk modes change the curve, not the math by much
| Mode | 0-hit return | Top multiplier (10 picks) | Feel |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic | 0× | ~22× | Balanced |
| Low | 0.7× | ~6× | Grindy |
| Medium | 0× | ~83× | Sharper edges |
| High | 0× | ~1,000× | Long droughts |
RTP varies slightly across modes — Stake publishes the numbers per mode in the game info panel. Always confirm before locking your style.
How Canadians actually play Keno
Two patterns dominate. The first is small-bet, 4-pick Low for grinding rakeback. The second is small-bet, 10-pick High for variance moments. Mid-pick counts feel awkward; the math doesn't favour them and the visual rhythm is worse.
Where Keno fits
Keno's siblings on the quick-round side are Slide and Plinko. For the same fast pacing with deeper math, Hilo trades number picks for card streaks. The whole list is on the Originals catalogue page.
