The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the moment, so you may think that there might be little affinity for visiting Zimbabwe's gambling dens. In reality, it seems to be functioning the opposite way, with the awful economic conditions creating a higher eagerness to wager, to try and find a fast win, a way out of the situation.

For almost all of the people surviving on the tiny local wages, there are two established styles of gambling, the national lottery and Zimbet. Just as with almost everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the probabilities of succeeding are extremely low, but then the prizes are also surprisingly high. It's been said by market analysts who study the idea that many do not buy a card with an actual belief of winning. Zimbet is founded on one of the domestic or the UK football leagues and involves determining the results of future games.

Zimbabwe's gambling halls, on the other foot, cater to the very rich of the society and travelers. Up until not long ago, there was a extremely large sightseeing industry, centered on nature trips and visits to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and associated crime have cut into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe's gambling halls, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, 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 have gaming tables, slots and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which offer video poker machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe's gambling halls and the above mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a pools system), there are a total of two horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the market has shrunk by beyond 40 percent in recent years and with the associated poverty and crime that has resulted, it is not known how healthy the vacationing industry which supports Zimbabwe's casinos will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will survive till conditions get better is merely unknown.
