The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the moment, so you might think that there would be very little desire for going to Zimbabwe’s casinos. In fact, it appears to be functioning the opposite way around, with the desperate market conditions creating a larger eagerness to play, to attempt to find a quick win, a way from the problems.

For many of the citizens subsisting on the meager nearby money, there are two established styles of betting, the national lotto and Zimbet. Just as with most everywhere else on the globe, there is a national lottery where the odds of profiting are extremely small, but then the prizes are also unbelievably big. It’s been said by financial experts who look at the concept that the majority do not buy a card with a real expectation of profiting. Zimbet is built on one of the domestic or the UK soccer divisions and involves predicting the results of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, look after the astonishingly rich of the state and sightseers. Until a short time ago, there was a very big vacationing business, built on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated conflict have carved 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 hall, which has just the slot machines. 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, both of which have table games, slots and video machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which have slot machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the aforestated mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a pools system), there are a total of 2 horse racing complexes in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Seeing as that the market has diminished by more than 40% in recent years and with the associated deprivation and bloodshed that has cropped up, it isn’t well-known how well the tourist business which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the near future. How many of the casinos will carry on until things get better is merely not known.
