There is a captivating story to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just across the dividing line from nearby Thailand, where casino gaming is not permitted. Eight gambling dens are situated in a generally small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia casinos is in a prime location, a three to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest gaming locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a thriving business with Thai workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The astonishing capital gained from the gambling halls ranges from $7.5 million to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of controls constraints for gambling den ownership. Ownership is required to be largely Thai; although, funding sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and though visas are allegedly required to pass, there are means around this, as is correct of many border crossings.
The initial Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving only 1 casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, an anchored barge gambling hall, highlights one hundred and fifty slot machine games and sixty table games. The Naga gambling hall is open all day and night with forty two tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The original gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown soon followed. There are one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 one armed bandits and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features 300 slot machine games and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machine games and sixty six of the common tables, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the eight gambling dens in Poipet, also a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slots and ninety seven casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an international resort and hotel compound that contains numerous amenities on top of the gambling hall, which provides 10,000 square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machines and 88 gaming tables.
