Cambodia Casinos

There is an interesting story to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just over the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, where gambling hall betting is banned. Eight gambling dens are established in a generally small area in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect spot, a three to 4 hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest gaming centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a huge business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing capital gained from the gambling dens ranges from $7.5 million to over 12.5 million, and there are a few controls constraints for gambling den ownership. Ownership is required to be mainly Thai; still, investment sources are cryptic. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are allegedly needed to cross, there are means around this, as is true of many borders.

The first Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in the late nineties, leaving only a single casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship gambling den, features one hundred and fifty slot machines and sixty gaming tables. The Naga gambling den is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of blackjack, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon opened. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machine games and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machines and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slot machine games and 70 gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machine games and 96 gaming tables, including eighty seven punto banco (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slots and sixty six of the common gaming tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 casinos in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slots and ninety seven games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-inclusive vacation and hotel complex that contains many comforts aside from the casino, which offers ten thousand sq.ft. of 130 slots and 88 gaming tables.
