A novel Nudge Keno game is disclosed wherein a player selects up to ten numbers from a field of numbers 1-80 to be played and these numbers are compared to twenty numbers randomly selected by the game from the same field of numbers in a manner known in the prior art. When there are at least four number matches the player has winnings. With the invention five additional nudge numbers are randomly selected at the same time as the twenty numbers and are compared to the randomly selected twenty numbers. When there are a predetermined number of nudge number matches the player receives a number of options equal to the number of nudge number matches to have additional random numbers added to the twenty numbers. These additional numbers are also compared to the player selected numbers and increase the player's chances of winning. When the player receives nudge options, whether or not they achieve additional matches between the additional numbers and the player selected numbers, their winnings are determined from a different pay table that provides higher winnings.
