Modern History Of Keno

The fact that lotteries were not covered under the legislature, as gambling was legalized in the state of Nevada in 1931, discouraged no one. All that it took was to change the name of the ‘Chinese lottery’ to something else to prevent it from being a lottery any longer. This is when the name ‘horse race keno’ was made up with the idea that all the numbers represented horses and you simply wanted your horses to come in. As the government passed a law taxing off-track betting, the name had to be changed again, shortening it to just keno.
