a lottery wearing a casino costume, paying you to lose slower than slots.
means Keno is a casino gambling game in which players pick numbers and win based on how many match those drawn at random, like a lottery played continuously inside a casino.
from The name comes from French quine, meaning a set of five winning numbers in a lottery, which traces back to Latin quini, "five each." The game itself is often linked in popular tellings to an ancient Chinese lottery, but that connection is more legend than documented fact; what's solid is that the modern game and its French-derived name took hold in 19th-century America.
