There is an appealing history to the Cambodia gambling halls that lie just over the border from neighboring Thailand, where gambling den gambling is not allowed. Eight gambling halls are situated in a generally tiny area in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia casinos is in an excellent area, a 3 to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular gambling centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a thriving business with Thai blue-collar workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The phenomenal capital acquired from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of controls requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is presumed to be largely Thai; although, funding sources are ambiguous. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 17:00, and even though visas are allegedly necessary to pass, there are methods around this, as is accurate of most border crossings.
The first Cambodia gambling halls opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving just one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary boat gambling den, contains 150 slot machines and sixty table games. The Naga casino is open all day and night with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of 21, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The original gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long followed. There are 150 slot machines and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slots and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slots and ninety six gaming tables, including 87 baccarat banque (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machines and 66 of the normal tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the eight gambling dens in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and ninety seven table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a comprehensive vacation and hotel compound that highlights numerous conveniences aside from the gambling den, which provides 10,000 square feet of 130 slot machines and 88 gaming tables.
