There is an appealing background to the Cambodia casinos that reside just across the border from neighboring Thailand, where gambling den wagering is prohibited. Eight gambling halls are anchored in a generally small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect destination, a 3 to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular gaming centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai blue-collar workers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very couple of Westerners. The phenomenal income accrued from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a couple of limitations requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is presumed to be largely Thai; although, financing sources are cryptic. The borders are ceremoniously open from 09:00 to 1700, and despite the fact visas are for all intents and purposes required to cross, there are ways around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in the late nineties, leaving only one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary ship casino, highlights 150 slots and 60 gaming tables. The Naga casino is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of chemin de fer, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The first casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long followed. A total of one hundred and fifty slots and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slots and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slots and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 one armed bandits and 96 gaming tables, including 87 baccarat banque (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machine games and 66 of the familiar table games, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the eight gambling halls in Poipet, again in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a comprehensive resort and hotel complex that contains numerous conveniences aside from the gambling den, which has 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slots and eighty eight gaming tables.
