There is a captivating history to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the dividing line from nearby Thailand, where casino betting is not allowed. Eight casinos are situated in a generally small area in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect destination, a three to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai laborers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The astonishing capital acquired from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million, and there are a few limitations requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is assumed to be largely Thai; although, financial sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 9:00 a.m. to 1700, and despite the fact visas are apparently needed to cross, there are methods and means around this, as is accurate of most border crossings.

The 1st Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship gambling den, highlights one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and sixty gaming tables. The Naga gambling den never closes with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The first gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are one hundred and fifty slots and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machine games and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 one armed bandits and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven punto banco (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slots and 66 of the common tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and ninety seven casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-inclusive resort and hotel complex that highlights numerous comforts in addition to the gambling den, which contains 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machines and 88 gaming tables.
