Cambodia Casinos
There is an appealing background to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just over the dividing line from nearby Thailand, in which casino wagering is banned. Eight gambling dens are anchored in a relatively tiny area in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia casinos is in a prime area, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest gambling locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai laborers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing capital accrued from the casinos ranges from 7.5 million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a couple of limitations constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is assumed to be mostly Thai; however, financial sources are cryptic. The borders are officially open from 9:00 a.m. to 17:00, and although visas are supposedly needed to cross, there are methods around this, as is correct of most border crossings.
The initial Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship gambling den, contains 150 one armed bandits and sixty tables. The Naga casino is open all day and night with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, four tables of blackjack, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The original casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown soon followed. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machines and five table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machines and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machines and 70 tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 one armed bandits and sixty six of the normal table games, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the eight casinos in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a multinational vacation and hotel building that features numerous comforts accompanying the gambling den, which has ten thousand square feet of 130 slots and eighty eight tables.
