The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a gamble at the current time, so you may envision that there would be little appetite for patronizing Zimbabwe's gambling dens. In fact, it seems to be operating the other way, with the crucial market circumstances creating a larger ambition to wager, to attempt to locate a fast win, a way out of the problems.

For most of the citizens living on the tiny local wages, there are 2 established styles of betting, the state lotto and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the globe, there is a state lottery where the odds of hitting are extremely small, but then the prizes are also extremely large. It's been said by market analysts who study the subject that most don't buy a card with the rational expectation of hitting. Zimbet is founded on one of the domestic or the UK soccer leagues and involves predicting the results of future games.

Zimbabwe's gambling dens, on the other shoe, pander to the incredibly rich of the society and tourists. Up till recently, there was a very substantial sightseeing business, built on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and connected violence have cut into this trade.

Among Zimbabwe's gambling halls, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which offer table games, one armed bandits and video machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which has video poker machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe's casinos and the aforementioned alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a parimutuel betting system), there are also two horse racing complexes in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the economy has deflated by beyond 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated deprivation and bloodshed that has come about, it is not known how healthy the tourist industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe's casinos will do in the near future. How many of them will carry through until things improve is merely unknown.
