There is a captivating background to the Cambodia casinos that reside just across the dividing line from next door Thailand, in which gambling den wagering is not allowed. Eight gambling halls are established in a relatively small space in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling halls is in an excellent spot, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest wagering centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The amazing capital acquired from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few restrictions requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is required to be mainly Thai; however, financial sources are ambiguous. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 1700, and even though visas are for all intents and purposes needed to pass, there are means around this, as is accurate of many borders.

The original Cambodia gambling dens premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving only one casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked bateau gambling hall, features one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and 60 tables. The Naga gambling den never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of vingt-et-un, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The 1st gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown soon opened. There are 150 one armed bandits and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slots and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machine games and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 one armed bandits and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow.
