There is an appealing story to the Cambodia casinos that lie just over the border from nearby Thailand, where casino wagering is not legal. Eight casinos are anchored in a generally tiny area in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling dens is in an excellent location, a 3 to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest gaming centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a huge business with Thai laborers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The amazing capital acquired from the casinos ranges from $7.5 million to over 12.5 million, and there are a couple of limitations constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; however, funding sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 9:00 a.m. to 1700, and despite the fact visas are allegedly needed to cross, there are methods around this, as is accurate of many borders.
The initial Cambodia gambling halls opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving only 1 gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored bateau gambling den, contains one hundred and fifty slot machine games and sixty table games. The Naga casino is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, 4 tables of chemin de fer, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The initial casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon followed. A total of 150 slots and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four one armed bandits and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slot machines and 70 gaming 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. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 one armed bandits and 66 of the common gaming tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the eight gambling halls in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machines and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-around vacation and hotel building that highlights a number of luxuries in addition to the gambling hall, which has ten thousand sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machines and eighty eight tables.
