Cambodia Gambling Dens
September 25th, 2015 by Kirsten

There is a captivating story to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just over the border from nearby Thailand, where gambling hall gaming is not legal. Eight casinos are situated in a relatively small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia gambling dens is in an excellent destination, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing income acquired from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million, and there are a number of controls requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; however, investment sources are cryptic. The borders are officially open from 09:00 to 17:00, and although visas are apparently needed to cross, there are methods around this, as is correct of many border crossings.

The 1st Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just one gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship gambling hall, highlights 150 slot machines and sixty table games. The Naga river boat never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The first gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are one hundred and fifty slots and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 one armed bandits and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slot machine games and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machines and ninety six table games, including 87 baccarat banque (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slots and 66 of the normal gaming tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the 8 casinos in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machines and ninety seven games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a multinational resort and hotel compound that highlights a number of comforts accompanying the casino, which has ten thousand sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machines and eighty eight tables.
