There is a captivating story to the Cambodia casinos that lie just across the dividing line from nearby Thailand, in which gambling hall gambling is not allowed. Eight casinos are based in a generally tiny space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia casinos is in a prime destination, a three to 4 hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two biggest wagering centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a thriving business with Thai laborers and visitors from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The phenomenal income accrued from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to over twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a number of limitations constraints for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mainly Thai; although, investment sources are vague. The borders are formally open from 9:00 a.m. to 17:00, and though visas are for all intents and purposes necessary to pass, there are methods and means around this, as is accurate of many border crossings.

The initial Cambodia casinos opened in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in the late nineties, leaving only one gambling hall in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored barge casino, contains one hundred and fifty one armed bandits and 60 table games. The Naga river boat never closes with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, four tables of twenty-one, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The 1st gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly opened. A total of 150 one armed bandits and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and 104 slots and sixty eight tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights three hundred slot machines and seventy gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machines and 96 gaming tables, including eighty seven punto banco (the most dominant game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machines and sixty six of the normal table games, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the 8 casinos in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slots and 97 table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of a comprehensive vacation and hotel building that features a number of amenities in addition to the casino, which provides 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty one armed bandits and eighty eight tables.
