There is a fascinating story to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the border from nearby Thailand, in which gambling hall gaming is not allowed. Eight casinos are established in a relatively tiny location in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia casinos is in an excellent destination, a 3 to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a thriving business with Thai blue-collar workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The astonishing income acquired from the gambling halls ranges from 7.5 million dollars to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of controls requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is assumed to be largely Thai; however, financing sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and even though visas are supposedly needed to pass, there are ways around this, as is accurate of most border crossings.

The original Cambodia gambling halls 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 stationary barge casino, contains one hundred and fifty slot machines and 60 table games. The Naga gambling den is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of 21, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. A total of 150 slot machine games and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and 104 one armed bandits and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights three hundred slot machines and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machine games and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat chemin de fer (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slots and sixty six of the common table games, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 casinos in Poipet, also a part of a hotel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-around resort and hotel complex that highlights numerous amenities in addition to the gambling den, which houses 10,000 square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and 88 table games.
