The Popularity of Online Live Lottery & Live Keno

Live lottery games draw real numbered balls on camera and pay you for matching numbers or lines. The main titles are Evolution's Mega Ball, Lightning Ball and Lightning Lotto, Pragmatic Play's Vegas Ball Bonanza and BetGames' Lucky 5 and Lucky 7. RTPs sit between 95% and 96.1%, lower than live table games. True live keno is not among the games listed here.

How live lottery games work

Bingo-ball games such as Mega Ball and Lightning Ball sell you numbered cards. Balls are drawn on camera and completed lines pay according to the paytable; a final multiplier ball can raise the wins.

Lotto games such as Lightning Lotto let you pick numbers and pay by how many match the draw, with random multipliers on some numbers.

Draw games from BetGames, such as Lucky 7 and Lucky 5, run scheduled draws with bets on single numbers, totals and even/odd.

Live keno, where 20 numbers are drawn from 80, is not among the games listed here; check your casino's lobby for it.

Pros and cons

ProsCons
Very low minimum stakes Lower RTP than table games
