There is a captivating history to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just across the border from neighboring Thailand, in which casino gaming is banned. Eight gambling halls are situated in a relatively small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia gambling halls is in an excellent spot, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest betting locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing income acquired from the gambling halls ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a few limitations requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is assumed to be mainly Thai; still, investment sources are vague. The borders are ceremoniously open from 09:00 to 17:00, and even though visas are apparently required to pass, there are means around this, as is correct of most borders.
The initial Cambodia gambling halls opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving only one gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary boat gambling hall, contains 150 one armed bandits and 60 gaming tables. The Naga casino is open all day and night with forty two tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, 4 tables of chemin de fer, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The 1st gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown soon followed. There are one hundred and fifty slot machines and five table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machine games and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slot machines and seventy table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machines and ninety six table games, including 87 punto banco (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machine games and sixty six of the common tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with 166 one armed bandits and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a multinational vacation and hotel complex that features a number of conveniences on top of the gambling den, which houses ten thousand square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machines and 88 tables.
