There is an appealing story to the Cambodia casinos that reside just over the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling den betting is not allowed. Eight gambling halls are situated in a generally small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia casinos is in a prime destination, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest gaming locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai laborers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The phenomenal income acquired from the gambling halls ranges from $7.5 million to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a number of limitations requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; however, investment sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 09:00 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are allegedly needed to pass, there are means around this, as is true of most borders.
The first Cambodia gambling halls opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in 1998, leaving just a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, an anchored boat gambling hall, highlights one hundred and fifty slot machine games and sixty table games. The Naga casino never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of twenty-one, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The original gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly opened. A total of 150 slot machine games and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machines and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains three hundred slots and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat banque (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machine games and 66 of the common gaming tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the eight gambling halls in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and ninety seven table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a comprehensive vacation and hotel complex that features a number of luxuries aside from the gambling den, which houses 10,000 square feet of 130 one armed bandits and eighty eight table games.
