The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you could envision that there would be very little affinity for going to Zimbabwe’s casinos. In reality, it appears to be functioning the other way, with the crucial economic circumstances creating a larger desire to gamble, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way out of the situation.

For most of the citizens subsisting on the tiny local wages, there are two common types of betting, the state lotto and Zimbet. As with practically everywhere else on the globe, there is a state lotto where the odds of winning are surprisingly small, but then the prizes are also surprisingly big. It’s been said by financial experts who understand the situation that the lion’s share don’t purchase a card with an actual assumption of hitting. Zimbet is founded on either the local or the United Kingston soccer leagues and involves predicting the results of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other foot, mollycoddle the exceedingly rich of the state and tourists. Up till recently, there was a considerably big sightseeing business, centered on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and associated bloodshed have cut into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has only slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which offer gaming tables, slots and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which has gaming machines and tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the above talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a parimutuel betting system), there are a total of two horse racing complexes in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the economy has deflated by beyond forty percent in recent years and with the associated deprivation and violence that has resulted, it is not understood how well the sightseeing business which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will still be around till conditions get better is basically unknown.
