There is a fascinating background to the Cambodia gambling halls that lie just over the dividing line from next door Thailand, in which gambling den gaming is banned. Eight casinos are anchored in a relatively small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia gambling dens is in a prime destination, a 3 to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the two biggest betting centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing income gained from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a number of controls constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mostly Thai; still, financing sources are ambiguous. The borders are ceremoniously open from 9:00 a.m. to 1700, and though visas are apparently required to cross, there are methods around this, as is correct of most border crossings.
The initial Cambodia gambling halls opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only one casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship casino, highlights one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and 60 tables. The Naga casino is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The first gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly followed. A total of one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features 300 one armed bandits and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slots and ninety six table games, including eighty seven punto banco (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow.
