There is an appealing history to the Cambodia gambling halls that reside just over the border from neighboring Thailand, where casino gaming is not legal. Eight casinos are established in a generally tiny location in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect destination, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest 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 few Westerners. The astonishing capital gained from the gambling halls ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of limitations requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mostly Thai; however, funding sources are cryptic. The borders are officially open from 0900 to 1700, and despite the fact visas are supposedly necessary to cross, there are methods and means around this, as is real of many borders.
The 1st Cambodia gambling halls opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving only one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, an anchored boat casino, contains 150 slots and sixty tables. The Naga casino is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, 4 tables of blackjack, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The original casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon followed. A total of one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and five tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 one armed bandits and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machine games and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat banque (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machines and sixty six of the common tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, again a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slots and ninety seven games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an international vacation and hotel compound that highlights a number of conveniences aside from the gambling den, which contains ten thousand sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slots and eighty eight gaming tables.
