There is a fascinating background to the Cambodia casinos that lie just over the border from next door Thailand, where gambling den gaming is not allowed. Eight gambling dens are established in a generally small location in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect destination, a 3 to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular betting centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai laborers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very couple of Westerners. The phenomenal income acquired from the gambling dens ranges from $7.5 million to over 12.5 million dollars, and there are a couple of limitations constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is presumed to be largely Thai; although, financial sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 5:00 p.m., and though visas are allegedly needed to pass, there are means around this, as is real of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just 1 gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship gambling den, contains one hundred and fifty slot machines and 60 tables. The Naga river boat is open 24 hours with 42 tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of blackjack, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The first gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown quickly followed. There are 150 one armed bandits and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slots and 68 tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains 300 slots and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and ninety six table games, including 87 punto banco (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, 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. An additional of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a multinational vacation and hotel complex that highlights numerous luxuries on top of the gambling den, which provides ten thousand square feet of 130 one armed bandits and eighty eight tables.
