The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you could envision that there would be little appetite for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it seems to be operating the opposite way around, with the awful economic circumstances leading to a higher ambition to bet, to attempt to find a fast win, a way from the situation.
For many of the people surviving on the abysmal nearby money, there are two dominant types of gaming, the national lottery and Zimbet. As with practically everywhere else on the globe, there is a national lottery where the probabilities of profiting are surprisingly tiny, but then the prizes are also remarkably high. It’s been said by market analysts who study the concept that most do not buy a ticket with a real assumption of hitting. Zimbet is founded on either the domestic or the English soccer divisions and involves determining the results of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other foot, look after the astonishingly rich of the society and travelers. Up till a short time ago, there was a very substantial tourist business, centered on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and connected crime have cut into this trade.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree Casino, which has only slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which contain table games, one armed bandits and video machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which has gaming machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the above talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the economy has contracted by beyond 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated deprivation and conflict that has resulted, it is not known how healthy the vacationing industry which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will carry on till things improve is simply not known.
