There is a captivating history to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the border from neighboring Thailand, where gambling den wagering is not allowed. Eight gambling dens are situated in a generally small area in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia casinos is in a perfect area, a three to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two biggest wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai blue-collar workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The astonishing income accrued from the casinos ranges from 7.5 million dollars to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few restrictions requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mostly Thai; although, funding sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 09:00 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are allegedly needed to cross, there are means around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving just 1 casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, an anchored barge gambling den, highlights one hundred and fifty slots and sixty gaming tables. The Naga casino is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of 21, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long followed. A total of 150 one armed bandits and five tables at the Golden Crown and 104 one armed bandits and 68 gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights three hundred slots and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slots and ninety six table games, including 87 punto banco (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slots and 66 of the common table games, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the eight gambling halls in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and ninety seven casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-inclusive vacation and hotel compound that highlights numerous luxuries aside from the casino, which offers ten thousand sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and eighty eight tables.
