There is an interesting history to the Cambodia casinos that lie just across the dividing line from nearby Thailand, where gambling den wagering is against the law. Eight casinos are based in a relatively tiny location in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling dens is in a prime location, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest betting locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai workers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The phenomenal capital accrued from the gambling dens ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a number of limitations constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; still, funding sources are ambiguous. The borders are officially open from 0900 to 17:00, and despite the fact visas are for all intents and purposes needed to pass, there are ways around this, as is true of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only one casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship gambling den, highlights 150 slots and sixty gaming tables. The Naga gambling hall never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat, four tables of blackjack, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The original gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long followed. There are 150 slot machine games and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and 104 one armed bandits and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machine games and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 one armed bandits and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven punto banco (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machine games and sixty six of the familiar gaming tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the eight casinos in Poipet, also a part of a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machines and 97 table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-around resort and hotel complex that contains a number of comforts on top of the casino, which provides ten thousand square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machines and eighty eight tables.
