How Keno Works
Keno is the lottery of the catalogue. You select a set of numbers on a grid, the game draws its own numbers, and your payout depends on how many of your picks match. Hit a lot of them and the multipliers climb steeply; hit few and you collect little or nothing.
There is no strategy to speak of, which is part of the charm: it is probability laid bare, and because the house edge is removed the paytable reflects fair odds. The provably fair draw means you can confirm the numbers were committed before you picked, so the game cannot dodge your selection.

Provably Fair
Every Duel Original, including Keno, is provably fair through a dual-seed system. Before a round, the server generates a seed, hashes it and shows you the hash. You add your own client seed, and a nonce counts each bet. Those values run through HMAC-SHA256 to produce the result, and once the round ends the server reveals the original seed so you can re-run the hash and confirm nothing changed after you bet.
You never have to trust Duel on Keno. The dual-seed commitment means the outcome is locked before your bet and revealed for verification afterwards, so the published return reflects real, checkable odds rather than a promise.
Keno FAQ
Is Duel Keno provably fair?
Yes. Keno uses Duel's dual-seed system: the server commits to a hashed seed before the round, you provide a client seed, and after the round the server seed is revealed so you can verify the result yourself with HMAC-SHA256.
What is the RTP and house edge of Keno?
Keno has a published RTP of 100% and a house edge of 0% (within caps). Duel earns through a per-round commission and rakeback rather than a margin baked into the game math.
