There is a captivating story to the Cambodia gambling dens that lie just over the dividing line from neighboring Thailand, in which casino betting is not allowed. Eight casinos are anchored in a relatively small space in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling dens is in a perfect spot, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular betting centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The phenomenal income accrued from the gambling dens ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a few limitations constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; still, financing sources are ambiguous. The borders are ceremoniously open from 09:00 to 1700, and even though visas are apparently required to cross, there are means around this, as is correct of many borders.

The original Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving just a single casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked ship casino, contains 150 slot machine games and sixty tables. The Naga river boat never closes with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, four tables of blackjack, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The first gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown quickly followed. A total of 150 one armed bandits and five tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machine games and 68 gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features 300 slot machines and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machine games and ninety six gaming tables, including 87 baccarat (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slot machines and sixty six of the familiar tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the eight casinos in Poipet, again a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machines and 97 games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in an all-around resort and hotel compound that features many amenities accompanying the gambling den, which provides ten thousand sq.ft. of 130 slot machines and eighty eight table games.
