• Cambodia Gambling Halls

    There is an interesting history to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just across the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling den gambling is illegal. Eight gambling dens are situated in a relatively tiny space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia gambling halls is in a prime destination, a three to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest wagering centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai laborers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The amazing capital acquired from the gambling halls ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a number of limitations constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mainly Thai; although, funding sources are vague. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and despite the fact visas are supposedly necessary to cross, there are ways around this, as is true of most borders.

    The original Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in the late nineties, leaving just a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary boat gambling den, features one hundred and fifty slot machines and 60 tables. The Naga gambling hall is open 24 hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of twenty-one, 10 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, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are 150 slots and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slots and 68 gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred one armed bandits and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machines and ninety six gaming tables, including 87 baccarat chemin de fer (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machine games and sixty six of the familiar table games, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, again a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slots and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-inclusive vacation and hotel building that features a number of conveniences on top of the gambling den, which has ten thousand square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machines and eighty eight table games.
