Cambodia Casinos

There is a captivating story to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just across the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling den gambling is illegal. Eight gambling dens are anchored in a relatively small location in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia gambling halls is in an excellent destination, a 3 to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two biggest wagering centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai blue-collar workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The phenomenal income acquired from the gambling halls ranges from $7.5 million to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of controls requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is assumed to be largely Thai; still, funding sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and despite the fact visas are supposedly needed to pass, there are means around this, as is correct of most borders.

The first Cambodia casinos opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving only one casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored barge gambling hall, contains 150 slots and sixty table games. The Naga gambling hall never closes with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, four tables of chemin de fer, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The original casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long followed. A total of 150 slot machine games and five table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four one armed bandits and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machines and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 one armed bandits and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven punto banco (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machine games and 66 of the common tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the eight gambling dens in Poipet, also in a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and ninety seven casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a comprehensive resort and hotel compound that contains many comforts aside from the gambling hall, which provides ten thousand sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and eighty eight tables.
