There is an appealing background to the Cambodia gambling dens that lie just over the dividing line from nearby Thailand, in which gambling den gaming is illegal. Eight casinos are established in a generally tiny space in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia casinos is in a prime location, a 3 to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the two largest betting centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai laborers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The amazing income gained from the gambling dens ranges from $7.5 million to more than 12.5 million, and there are a number of controls requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be largely Thai; although, financial sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 09:00 to 1700, and despite the fact visas are allegedly required to cross, there are methods around this, as is accurate of most borders.

The 1st Cambodia casinos premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in the late nineties, leaving just one gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored bateau gambling hall, highlights 150 one armed bandits and 60 tables. The Naga gambling hall is open all day and night with 42 tables of mini-baccarat, 4 tables of 21, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The 1st gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown quickly opened. There are one hundred and fifty slot machine games and five tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four one armed bandits and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The latest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort contains three hundred slot machine games and 70 gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has 166 one armed bandits and 96 gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat banque (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. In addition, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 slot machine games and 66 of the common tables, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the eight gambling dens in Poipet, also in a hotel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slots and ninety seven games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a multinational vacation and hotel compound that contains many comforts in addition to the casino, which contains 10,000 square feet of 130 slot machines and eighty eight tables.
