Cleopatra Keno by IGT leverages the popular Cleopatra brand!
For those not familiar, Keno is a fairly basic game where you choose numbers between 1 and 80 after which 20 numbers are drawn. You win if a certain number of your numbers match, based on the number of numbers you play. The more numbers you play, the more numbers you need to minimally match in order to win, and also the more you can win if you match ALL of your numbers. In this Keno video, I played 8 numbers with payouts as follows for an 8 credit bet:
4 Hits pays 24
5 Hits pays 80
Keno Cleopatra Free
6 Hits pays 400
7 Hits pays 1440
8 Hits pays 8000
As this is Cleopatra Keno, there is a bonus which is triggered by having both a winning round AND having the scarab symbol land on one of your numbers. The scarab is essentially just another ball that's the last to be drawn. If these two events occur, the bonus is triggered for 12 Free games where payouts are doubled(and sadly not tripled like they typically are in Cleopatra!) Obviously scoring a Big Win or Jackpot during the bonus is where it's at, if you're lucky to have your numbers be drawn, Enjoy!

Man.I forgot you played Cleopatra keno.I was a keno player before slot player.Hit for 800 last night on cleo.Dollar denom.Nice win.

I'm sorry I ever played this game. it's fun... but I've donated... hmmm, around 30 thousand dollars in 5 years? I don't go to the casinos anymore. I didn't end up in gamblers anonymous, but I did take a friend and it's just like alcoholics anonymous and very real. Rock bottoms are rock bottoms, alcohol, drugs, gambling... addictions ruin your life.

Why was it stuck on 9th SPIN? It looks edited...just saying ✌🏽🙏🏽

Hal Matthews
$400 on a $4 bet? That's not a big win. I won $475 today on Cleopatra Keno playing 40 cents. I was expecting something bigger
Thomas Fletcher
I remember playing that ( and other keno games ) at casinos in Montana . Rarely touched any other games.

You've piqued my interest in keno. I'll have to give a try next time we're in Vegas. We used to play while we were eating dinner in the casino.
Steve
Odds on this are terrible you should be playing straight Keno.
Filet Sheyo
Ant? Is he talking about the scarab?!?! OMG...Must be a millennial with that awesome and overflowing well of knowledge.

My dogs name is keno but then 2 years after we named him I found out keno is the name of a gambling game

Cleopatra Keno always seems to have long spells of non paying plays. I found that exiting the game by going back to the game selection screen, then re entering it and placing THE SAME BET AMOUNT or lower, that it pays much more frequently. Whenever I experience 3-5 consecutive non winning plays, I employ this strategy. More often than not, the game will respond with a payout within the next 3 spins. There are 3 different strategies I use to 'stop the bleeding' as I like to say. I show proof of this technique on my you tube page with an unscripted, unedited video of me playing Cleo keno for about 1/2 hour where I turned 4 banks of $100 int a profit of over $1,000. Noteworthy is the percentage of winning spins.
I enjoyed a 33% winning spin to non winning spin ratio, whereas in your video, yours was closer to 12%. I cover three different techniques in my video. Check it out and let me know what you think. More importantly, try it next time you are playing a Cleopatra keno game with long dry spells. You will find that the machine usually responds well to it. Just link to my user name and the video should be on the cover page.
