• Cambodia Gambling Dens

    [ English ]

    There is an appealing history to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just across the border from next door Thailand, where gambling den gambling is not legal. Eight gambling halls are established in a relatively small location in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia casinos is in a prime location, a three to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest gaming locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a thriving business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The phenomenal income accrued from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a couple of restrictions requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is required to be mainly Thai; however, funding sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 17:00, and although visas are apparently needed to cross, there are means around this, as is true of most borders.

    The original Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just 1 gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored ship gambling den, highlights one hundred and fifty slot machines and 60 tables. The Naga gambling den is open all day and night with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of 21, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

    The initial casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are 150 slot machines and five table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machine games and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 one armed bandits and 70 tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slots and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machines and sixty six of the common tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with 166 one armed bandits and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-around resort and hotel building that contains a number of conveniences accompanying the casino, which provides ten thousand sq.ft. of 130 slots and 88 tables.
