There is an interesting story to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just across the dividing line from nearby Thailand, where casino gambling is not legal. Eight gambling halls are situated in a generally tiny space in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia gambling dens is in a prime area, a three to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest gaming locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a huge business with Thai workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very couple of Westerners. The amazing income accrued from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a number of limitations constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; however, investment sources are cryptic. The borders are ceremoniously open from 09:00 to 17:00, and although visas are supposedly needed to cross, there are methods and means around this, as is accurate of most border crossings.
The initial Cambodia casinos opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving just 1 gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary bateau gambling hall, contains 150 slot machine games and 60 tables. The Naga gambling den never closes with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of 21, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The 1st gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are 150 slot machine games and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machine games and 70 tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 96 table games, including 87 punto banco (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 gaming tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the eight gambling dens in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slots and 97 table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an international resort and hotel building that contains a number of luxuries on top of the gambling hall, which provides 10,000 sq.ft. of 130 slot machine games and 88 table games.
