The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you might imagine that there might be little desire for supporting Zimbabwe’s casinos. In fact, it appears to be working the other way, with the atrocious economic conditions creating a larger ambition to wager, to try and locate a quick win, a way out of the problems.
For most of the locals surviving on the abysmal nearby money, there are two established types of wagering, the state lottery and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else in the world, there is a state lottery where the odds of winning are surprisingly tiny, but then the winnings are also extremely big. It’s been said by market analysts who understand the situation that the majority do not purchase a ticket with a real belief of profiting. Zimbet is centered on either the local or the British soccer leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other hand, cater to the considerably rich of the country and travelers. Up till a short while ago, there was a very large sightseeing business, centered on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and connected crime have carved into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just one armed bandits. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have table games, slots and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, each of which have video poker machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforementioned alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a pools system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has deflated by more than 40 percent in recent years and with the associated poverty and bloodshed that has come about, it is not understood how well the sightseeing business which supports Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the next few years. How many of them will still be around till conditions get better is simply not known.
