Ticket [Meaning] - MasterTerms.com

Ticket

A ticket in Keno is a physical or digital slip that players use to select their chosen numbers for the game. The ticket typically contains a grid of numbers from which players can mark their selections, ranging from 1 to 80, depending on the specific Keno game. Once the ticket is filled out, it is submitted to the Keno system for validation, and the player‘s selected numbers are then drawn randomly.

When a player purchases a Keno ticket, they decide how many numbers to play and which specific numbers to choose. After submitting the ticket, the Keno game draws a set number of winning numbers, and the player wins based on how many of their selected numbers match the drawn numbers. The payout varies depending on the game’s rules and the number of matches.

Ticket Example

For example, if a player selects a Keno ticket with the numbers 3, 7, 15, and 22, and the Keno game draws the winning numbers 3, 15, 25, and 30, the player would win based on matching two of their selected numbers (3 and 15).

Alternative Meanings:
  • Ticket
    A sports betting ticket can be printed or issued electronically, depending on whether the bet is placed at a physical sportsbook or online. It often contains unique identifiers to track the wager and can also include information about the payout potential based on the odds at the time of the bet. Bettors must keep their tickets safe, as losing a physical ticket can result in the inability to collect winnings.

    Ticket Example

    For example, if a bettor places a $50 bet on a football game with odds of +200, the ticket will reflect the wager amount and the potential payout of $150 if the bet wins (the original $50 plus $100 in winnings).
