The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you could imagine that there would be little affinity for supporting Zimbabwe's gambling dens. In reality, it appears to be functioning the opposite way around, with the awful economic circumstances leading to a greater desire to bet, to try and locate a fast win, a way out of the problems.

For almost all of the people subsisting on the tiny nearby money, there are 2 common forms of gambling, the state lotto and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else in the world, there is a state lotto where the probabilities of succeeding are surprisingly small, but then the winnings are also unbelievably large. It's been said by economists who study the concept that most do not buy a card with a real belief of winning. Zimbet is based on one of the national or the United Kingston football leagues and involves predicting the results of future matches.

Zimbabwe's gambling dens, on the other hand, pander to the incredibly rich of the country and travelers. Up till a short time ago, there was a considerably big sightseeing business, founded on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The economic collapse and associated crime have cut into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe's gambling halls, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and one armed bandits, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have table games, one armed bandits and video machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which has video poker machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe's gambling halls and the previously talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there are also two horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Given that the economy has diminished by more than 40% in recent years and with the connected poverty and conflict that has resulted, it is not known how well the vacationing industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe's casinos will do in the next few years. How many of them will carry through till conditions get better is simply unknown.
