There is an appealing story to the Cambodia gambling halls that reside just over the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, where gambling den betting is prohibited. Eight casinos are anchored in a generally small location in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia casinos is in a perfect area, a three to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest gaming centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a thriving business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The amazing capital acquired from the casinos ranges from $7.5 million to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few restrictions constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be largely Thai; still, funding sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 9:00 a.m. to 17:00, and despite the fact visas are for all intents and purposes required to pass, there are means around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.
The initial Cambodia gambling dens premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only 1 gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked boat casino, features 150 slot machines and 60 tables. The Naga river boat is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of chemin de fer, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The initial gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon followed. There are 150 slots and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machine games and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slot machine games and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slots and 96 table games, including eighty seven punto banco (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 one armed bandits and 66 of the common gaming tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, also in a hotel, 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 an all-inclusive resort and hotel compound that highlights numerous amenities on top of the casino, which provides ten thousand square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machines and eighty eight gaming tables.
