The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the moment, so you might imagine that there might be little desire for visiting Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it seems to be working the opposite way around, with the desperate economic circumstances leading to a larger eagerness to wager, to try and locate a fast win, a way out of the crisis.
For nearly all of the people subsisting on the tiny local money, there are two established types of wagering, the national lotto and Zimbet. As with almost everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the odds of winning are remarkably small, but then the winnings are also extremely large. It’s been said by financial experts who study the concept that many do not buy a ticket with an actual belief of hitting. Zimbet is centered on one of the national or the English football divisions and involves determining the results of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other hand, cater to the exceedingly rich of the society and vacationers. Until not long ago, there was a exceptionally big tourist industry, built on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated violence have cut into this market.
Amongst Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and one armed bandits, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slots. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have table games, slot machines and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, each of which offer gaming machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the previously mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Given that the economy has diminished by beyond 40% in the past few years and with the connected poverty and bloodshed that has come to pass, it is not well-known how well the vacationing industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the in the years to come. How many of them will still be around until conditions get better is basically not known.
