With no true strategy existing for a player to improve their chances of winning at Keno, there are few tips that will help a player, although the following have a chance of making a subtle difference in the favourability of the outcome.

Play numbers which have not come up during recent games, working on the basis that to satisfy the theory of random selection, all balls must eventually make an appearance as all have an equal chance of being drawn.

Choose pairs of numbers over singletons as it often happens that pairs of numbers are drawn fairly often, although you should not block all your numbers together as the probabilities of more than two consecutive numbers being drawn falls.

Play the same set of numbers over several games. While this has as much chance as any other way of playing, it is easier to keep track of and easier on the eyes.

While any of these tips may have no bearing whatsoever on the outcome of any game, they give the player the illusion of playing to a strategy, which in itself adds to the positive feelings a player needs in order to generate that aura of luck around them.
