There is a fascinating history to the Cambodia gambling halls that lie just over the dividing line from nearby Thailand, where casino betting is illegal. Eight casinos are situated in a relatively small space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect spot, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest gambling locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai laborers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The astonishing income gained from the casinos ranges from $7.5 million to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of limitations constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is assumed to be mainly Thai; still, financial sources are vague. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 1700, and although visas are for all intents and purposes needed to pass, there are ways around this, as is correct of most border crossings.

The 1st Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored boat gambling den, contains 150 slots and 60 table games. The Naga casino is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-punto banco, four tables of 21, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
