Cambodia Casinos

There is a captivating story to the Cambodia casinos that reside just over the border from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling den wagering is not legal. Eight gambling dens are situated in a relatively small space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling dens is in a perfect spot, a 3 to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest betting locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai blue-collar workers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The phenomenal income acquired from the casinos ranges from 7.5 million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a couple of limitations requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; although, investment sources are vague. The borders are officially open from 0900 to 17:00, and though visas are allegedly necessary to cross, there are methods and means around this, as is accurate of most border crossings.

The original Cambodia casinos opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in the late nineties, leaving only 1 casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship gambling den, features one hundred and fifty slot machine games and 60 table games. The Naga casino is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of 21, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long followed. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machine games and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four one armed bandits and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains three hundred slots and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and ninety six gaming tables, including 87 punto banco (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machines and 66 of the common tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an international resort and hotel compound that highlights many conveniences accompanying the gambling hall, which offers 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty one armed bandits and eighty eight tables.
