The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you could imagine that there would be very little affinity for patronizing Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it appears to be functioning the other way, with the atrocious economic circumstances creating a greater desire to bet, to attempt to discover a quick win, a way out of the problems.
For many of the citizens living on the abysmal nearby money, there are two dominant styles of betting, the state lotto and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else on the planet, there is a state lotto where the chances of hitting are surprisingly tiny, but then the jackpots are also extremely big. It’s been said by market analysts who study the concept that the majority do not buy a ticket with the rational belief of hitting. Zimbet is founded on either the local or the UK football leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other foot, cater to the extremely rich of the society and tourists. Up until not long ago, there was a extremely big tourist business, based on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and associated bloodshed have carved into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree Casino, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which offer table games, slots and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which has video poker machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the aforestated alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a parimutuel betting system), there are a total of two horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Seeing as that the market has deflated by more than 40 percent in recent years and with the connected poverty and conflict that has come about, it isn’t well-known how well the sightseeing business which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the near future. How many of them will be alive until things improve is simply unknown.
