There is an interesting story to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the dividing line from next door Thailand, in which gambling den gambling is illegal. Eight gambling halls are situated in a relatively tiny space in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling halls is in a prime destination, a 3 to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a huge business with Thai laborers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The astonishing income gained from the casinos ranges from $7.5 million to more than twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a number of limitations constraints for gambling den ownership. Ownership is presumed to be largely Thai; still, financial sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 09:00 to 1700, and even though visas are for all intents and purposes necessary to cross, there are methods and means around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia gambling dens premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving just 1 casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a stationary barge casino, features 150 slots and sixty table games. The Naga gambling den is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of blackjack, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The first casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. There are 150 slots and five table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machines and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights three hundred slot machine games and 70 gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machines and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat chemin de fer (the most beloved game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five slots and 66 of the common tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling halls in Poipet, also in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a comprehensive vacation and hotel complex that contains many luxuries in addition to the gambling den, which contains ten thousand sq.ft. of 130 slots and 88 tables.
