Top-Bottom Ticket

Other Table GamesREPORTED

A keno ticket marked with a horizontal line across the center, where the player wagers that the majority of drawn numbers will fall in either the top half (41-80) or the bottom half (1-40) of the number range. Top-Bottom tickets are structurally similar to Left-Right tickets but use a horizontal division. Some casinos offer large jackpot payouts for extreme outcomes, such as all 20 drawn numbers falling in one half. Top-Bottom and Left-Right tickets represent keno’s adaptation of traditional lottery-style wagering to create variety and attract different player preferences.
