There is an appealing background to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the dividing line from next door Thailand, where gambling hall wagering is banned. Eight gambling halls are based in a generally small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling dens is in a prime destination, a 3 to 4 hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two biggest gaming locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The astonishing capital gained from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million, and there are a number of limitations requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; although, funding sources are ambiguous. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are for all intents and purposes needed to pass, there are means around this, as is correct of most border crossings.
The original Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, an anchored ship casino, contains 150 slot machine games and sixty gaming tables. The Naga gambling den is open all day and night with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, 4 tables of twenty-one, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The initial casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon followed. There are 150 slots and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four one armed bandits and 68 gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slots and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slots and 96 gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat chemin de fer (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machine games and sixty six of the familiar tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, also in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machines and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-inclusive resort and hotel complex that highlights many amenities accompanying the casino, which has 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty one armed bandits and 88 gaming tables.
