There is a fascinating background to the Cambodia casinos that reside just across the border from nearby Thailand, in which casino wagering is banned. Eight gambling halls are established in a relatively tiny location in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling halls is in a prime area, a three to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest gaming centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai blue-collar workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The astonishing income gained from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a few controls requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be largely Thai; still, financing sources are cryptic. The borders are officially open from 9:00 a.m. to 17:00, and even though visas are for all intents and purposes needed to cross, there are methods around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving just one casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship gambling hall, highlights 150 slot machine games and 60 table games. The Naga river boat never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of vingt-et-un, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The 1st casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machines and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 one armed bandits and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slot machine games and 70 gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machines and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machines and 66 of the normal tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 one armed bandits and ninety seven games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an international resort and hotel building that highlights numerous luxuries on top of the gambling hall, which has 10,000 sq.ft. of 130 one armed bandits and 88 gaming tables.
