There is an appealing history to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the border from next door Thailand, in which gambling hall betting is illegal. Eight gambling halls are based in a relatively tiny space in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling dens is in a perfect area, a three to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular betting locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The astonishing income gained from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few restrictions constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is required to be largely Thai; although, financial sources are vague. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 17:00, and though visas are apparently required to cross, there are means around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.
The first Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in 1998, leaving just a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary boat gambling den, features one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and sixty table games. The Naga gambling hall is open all day and night with forty two tables of mini-baccarat banque, 4 tables of vingt-et-un, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The initial casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long followed. A total of 150 slot machine games and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machine games and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 one armed bandits and ninety six table games, including 87 punto banco (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five one armed bandits and sixty six of the normal table games, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, again a part of a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machines and ninety seven table games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a comprehensive vacation and hotel building that features numerous luxuries accompanying the casino, which has 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and 88 gaming tables.
