About Keno Games

Keno was introduced in 200 BC by the Chinese military leader, Chung Lung who used this game as a finance resource for his failing army. He used this game as a finance resource to help his failing army. The city of Chung was waging a war, and after awhile of war time appeared to be facing national famine with the drastic decrease in supplies. Chung Lung needed to come up with a fast fix for the economic disaster and to produce revenue for his army. He thusly created the game we now know as Keno and it was a great success.

Keno used to be known as the White Pigeon Game, since the winning numbers were delivered by pigeons from larger cities to the smaller villages. The lottery 'Keno' was brought to the United States in the 1800s by Chinese immigrants who came to the US to work. In those times, Keno was played with 120 numbers.
