There is an appealing background to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just over the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, in which casino gambling is not legal. Eight gambling dens are established in a generally small space in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling dens is in a perfect area, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest betting centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a thriving business with Thai blue-collar workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very couple of Westerners. The amazing capital gained from the gambling dens 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; however, investment sources are cryptic. The borders are officially open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and though visas are apparently required to pass, there are methods and means around this, as is correct of most borders.
The first Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving only 1 gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored ship gambling hall, contains one hundred and fifty slot machine games and sixty gaming tables. The Naga casino is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The 1st gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown quickly opened. There are one hundred and fifty slot machines and five tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights three hundred slot machine games and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machines and ninety six gaming tables, including 87 baccarat chemin de fer (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow.
