Keno has grown in popularity in the United States since the end of the 19th century when the Chinese letters were replaced with more familiar, American numbers. Lottos weren’t covered under the laws of wagering in the state of Nevada in 1931. The casinos renamed the ‘Chinese lottery’ to ‘horse race keno’ utilizing the notion that the numbers are horses and you want your horses to come in. When a law passed that taxed off track wagering, the casinos swiftly changed the name to ‘Keno’.
