Cheung Leung had to develop a rapid response for the economic adversity and to produce income for his military. He, as it follows invented the game we know today as keno and it was a fantastic success.

Keno used to be well-known as the White Pigeon Game, due to the fact that the winning numbers were broadcast by pigeons from larger cities to the tinier villages. The lotto 'Keno' was imported to America in the 1800s by Chinese expatriates who came to the States for work. In those times, Keno was played with 120 numbers.

Keno grew in universal appeal in the United States near the end of the 1800's when the Chinese characters were replaced with more familiar, US numbers. Lottos were not covered under the laws of gaming in Nevada State in Nineteen Thirty One. The casinos changed the name of the 'Chinese lotto' to 'horse race keno' employing the notion that the numbers are horses and you are looking for your horses to come in. When the Nevada government passed a law that taxed off track wagering, Nevada casinos swiftly adjusted the name to 'Keno'.
