Landlocked Kazakhstan has been left a mystery to the western traveler for centuries, unknown from the pages of Marco Polo or Kipling. Some outsiders have been enlightened on the enchantment of this central Asian country, apart from the merchandisers who plied the Silk Road. Still, given that Kazakhstan achieved its independence in 1991 and notably under the insightful and benevolent presidency of Nursultan Nazarbayev, the country has developed. As the nation blooms, so do Kazakhstan casinos. Flushed with oil currency, it’s boom time in the playing associations of this passed soviet republic. There are 7 cities that have within them legal casino faculties of which there are conclusively 28 such venues. In truth if you are hungry for a stake, the tables are the only game in town, as Kazakhstan casinos are the only gaming operations permitted there.

With a soaring nine per cent boost annually, the Kazakh economy has expanded greatly in the last 10 yrs. and with it the Kazakh craze for the betting tables. The cosmopolitan, multi-ethnic, multinational city of Almaty is unrecognizable from its previous days as the chief city of a grey Soviet satellite state.

Outside of Almaty, the high-spirited gambler is also served; for example, the capital Astana has five casinos, the key one in the midst of them being one of the Casino Zodiak chain that boasts no less than twenty card tables. If that is not enough for you, casinos are also further afield in the cities of Aktobe, Kokshetau, Pavlodar, Shimkent, and also Ust-kamenogorsk. It is very obvious, regardless, that the Kazakh adoration for the green baize and clink of chips isn’t stated, since the vice-foreign minister recently went to Macao along with Hong Kong. The visit was certified to be a "short but fruitful" trip put together to study the betting industries of these towns and encourage enthusiasm in Kazakhstan’s nascent casino business.
