There is an appealing story to the Cambodia gambling halls that reside just over the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, in which casino wagering is banned. Eight gambling halls are established in a relatively small area in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling halls is in a prime spot, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest gaming locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai blue-collar workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The amazing capital accrued from the gambling dens ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a couple of limitations requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; although, financing sources are ambiguous. The borders are officially open from 09:00 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are for all intents and purposes necessary to cross, there are ways around this, as is accurate of many borders.
The first Cambodia casinos 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 moored ship gambling den, highlights one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and sixty table games. The Naga gambling den never closes with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The 1st gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly opened. A total of one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slots and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slots and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat chemin de fer (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five one armed bandits and sixty six of the familiar gaming tables, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the eight gambling halls in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and ninety seven table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a multinational resort and hotel compound that highlights many comforts in addition to the casino, which contains ten thousand square feet of one hundred and thirty slots and 88 table games.
