The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you might envision that there would be very little appetite for patronizing Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it seems to be operating the opposite way, with the critical economic conditions creating a higher desire to wager, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way from the difficulty.
For the majority of the locals living on the meager nearby earnings, there are two dominant types of wagering, the national lotto and Zimbet. As with almost everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the probabilities of succeeding are unbelievably small, but then the winnings are also surprisingly large. It’s been said by financial experts who look at the situation that many do not buy a ticket with the rational assumption of profiting. Zimbet is based on either the national or the United Kingston football divisions and involves determining the results of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other foot, pander to the considerably rich of the state and sightseers. Until not long ago, there was a considerably substantial tourist business, based on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and associated conflict have carved into this market.
Amongst Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slots. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which contain table games, one armed bandits and video machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which has slot machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the above mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there are a total of two horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has shrunk by more than forty percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and crime that has resulted, it isn’t understood how healthy the vacationing industry which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will still be around until conditions get better is simply unknown.
