There is an appealing background to the Cambodia casinos that reside just across the border from neighboring Thailand, in which gambling den gaming is illegal. Eight gambling halls are established in a relatively tiny location in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling dens is in a prime area, a three to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a thriving business with Thai blue-collar workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The phenomenal capital gained from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a couple of restrictions requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is assumed to be mostly Thai; however, investment sources are vague. The borders are officially open from 09:00 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are apparently required to pass, there are methods around this, as is correct of many borders.
The 1st Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only 1 casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship casino, highlights 150 slots and 60 tables. The Naga gambling den is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of twenty-one, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The 1st gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long followed. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machines and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slots and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slots and seventy table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 96 table games, including eighty seven baccarat chemin de fer (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machines and 66 of the common gaming tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the eight gambling halls in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a multinational vacation and hotel building that contains a number of luxuries aside from the gambling hall, which provides 10,000 square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and eighty eight tables.
