The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you may imagine that there would be very little affinity for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls. Actually, it appears to be operating the opposite way around, with the desperate market circumstances leading to a higher eagerness to gamble, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way out of the crisis.
For nearly all of the locals subsisting on the meager local money, there are two established styles of gaming, the national lotto and Zimbet. As with almost everywhere else on the planet, there is a state lottery where the odds of profiting are unbelievably low, but then the jackpots are also unbelievably big. It’s been said by market analysts who look at the idea that most do not buy a ticket with a real belief of profiting. Zimbet is centered on either the national or the United Kingston soccer divisions and involves determining the outcomes of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other foot, look after the extremely rich of the country and travelers. Up till a short while ago, there was a exceptionally substantial vacationing industry, centered on nature trips and visits to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and connected bloodshed have cut into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree Casino, which has just the slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which offer table games, slot machines and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which offer gaming machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the above mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a pools system), there are a total of two horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the economy has deflated by beyond forty percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and bloodshed that has resulted, it is not known how healthy the vacationing industry which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of them will survive until things get better is basically unknown.
