There is an interesting history to the Cambodia gambling dens that reside just over the border from neighboring Thailand, where gambling den betting is not permitted. Eight gambling halls are established in a generally tiny space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia casinos is in an excellent area, a three to 4 hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular betting centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a thriving business with Thai laborers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing capital gained from the gambling dens ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few controls constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is presumed to be mainly Thai; however, financial sources are ambiguous. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 1700, and even though visas are supposedly necessary to cross, there are ways around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.

The first Cambodia gambling dens premiered in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a docked boat gambling hall, contains one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and sixty tables. The Naga river boat is open all hours with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of vingt-et-un, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown soon followed. A total of 150 slot machines and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machines and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 slot machines and 70 table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 96 table games, including eighty seven punto banco (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machines and sixty six of the common tables, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, also a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slots and ninety seven casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a multinational vacation and hotel compound that features a number of amenities aside from the casino, which provides ten thousand square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machine games and eighty eight tables.
