When playing keno is it better to auto-pick or choose numbers manually?

No need to think about it. Place your bet and leave everything to Luck. You know that casino games depend on luck, not on strategy.

Hi Sklagesxxxx,

Thanks for bringing up a great question!

To keep it simple, there’s no real advantage between choosing your own Keno numbers or letting the system auto-pick them. Because Keno uses a Random Number Generator (RNG), every draw is completely random, meaning the odds remain exactly the same either way.

That said, some players enjoy the fun or ritual of picking their own “lucky” or "hot” numbers, while others prefer to let the machine do the work. It really comes down to personal preference.

• Best Keno Numbers That Hit the Most: 10+ Lucky Spots - explores the concept of “hot numbers” while reminding that outcomes are always random.

You can also find more detailed resources in our Academy’s Keno section, which covers everything from strategy to game mechanics.

I hope this helps clear things up!

Honestly, it doesn’t really matter .  Keno is pure luck. The odds stay the same whether you autopick or choose numbers yourself.

I like to use auto-pick, and if it has a good hit, do it a few times until it stops hitting, then keep auto-picking until the same happens again.

Auto pick for me and I go on from there when I pick i usually lose but that's just my luck
