There is a captivating story to the Cambodia gambling dens that sit just over the border from neighboring Thailand, where casino betting is not allowed. Eight gambling dens are situated in a generally small location in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling dens is in a perfect spot, a three to 4 hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest wagering centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The astonishing income gained from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a number of limitations constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is assumed to be largely Thai; however, funding sources are vague. The borders are ceremoniously open from 09:00 to 1700, and despite the fact visas are for all intents and purposes needed to pass, there are methods around this, as is true of most borders.

The Naga, a stationary boat casino, contains one hundred and fifty slot machines and 60 tables. The Naga casino is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of 21, ten of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The first casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown soon opened. There are one hundred and fifty slot machines and five tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machines and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains three hundred slot machines and seventy tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 slot machines and ninety six table games, including 87 punto banco (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five one armed bandits and sixty six of the common table games, as well as a single table of Casino Stud Poker.
