Cambodia Gambling Dens


There is a captivating background to the Cambodia casinos that lie just over the border from nearby Thailand, where gambling den betting is not permitted. Eight gambling halls are anchored in a relatively small area in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia casinos is in a prime spot, a 3 to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular gambling centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing capital gained from the gambling halls ranges from $7.5 million to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of limitations requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; however, investment sources are vague. The borders are officially open from 0900 to 17:00, and even though visas are for all intents and purposes needed to pass, there are means around this, as is accurate of most borders.

The original Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving just a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary bateau gambling den, features one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and 60 tables. The Naga river boat never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of chemin de fer, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The original gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long opened. A total of 150 slots and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slots and 68 gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slot machine games and 70 tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machines and ninety six table games, including eighty seven baccarat (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machine games and 66 of the familiar table games, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, again a part of a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slots and ninety seven table games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-around resort and hotel building that highlights numerous conveniences accompanying the gambling hall, which has 10,000 square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and 88 table games.
