There is a captivating story to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just over the border from neighboring Thailand, where gambling hall wagering is illegal. Eight gambling halls are anchored in a relatively tiny space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia gambling dens is in a prime spot, a 3 to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular betting locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai laborers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The amazing income acquired from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a number of restrictions constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is assumed to be mostly Thai; although, investment sources are vague. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 17:00, and although visas are apparently necessary to pass, there are methods and means around this, as is correct of many border crossings.
The initial Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving just one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship gambling hall, highlights 150 slot machines and sixty table games. The Naga gambling hall is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of 21, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The original gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon opened. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machine games and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machines and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slots and seventy table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slots and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machine games and 66 of the normal tables, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, also in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an international resort and hotel building that contains a number of comforts on top of the gambling hall, which contains 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty one armed bandits and 88 table games.
