There is an interesting background to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just across the border from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling den betting is prohibited. Eight casinos are based in a generally tiny area in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling dens is in an excellent spot, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest betting locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai laborers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The amazing capital gained from the casinos ranges from $7.5 million to over 12.5 million, and there are a number of restrictions constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; however, investment sources are vague. The borders are formally open from 09:00 to 17:00, and even though visas are supposedly necessary to pass, there are methods around this, as is correct of most border crossings.
The first Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in 1998, leaving just one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship gambling den, contains one hundred and fifty slots and sixty tables. The Naga casino is open all day and night with 42 tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of 21, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The initial gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly followed. There are one hundred and fifty slot machines and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four one armed bandits and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains three hundred slot machines and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slots and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat banque (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machine games and sixty six of the normal table games, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 casinos in Poipet, also a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-around resort and hotel building that contains numerous comforts accompanying the gambling hall, which houses 10,000 sq.ft. of 130 slot machine games and 88 gaming tables.
