The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you could envision that there might be very little desire for visiting Zimbabwe’s gambling halls. In fact, it seems to be operating the opposite way around, with the awful economic conditions creating a greater eagerness to play, to try and locate a quick win, a way from the problems.

For nearly all of the locals surviving on the tiny nearby money, there are two common forms of gaming, the state lotto and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the planet, there is a national lottery where the chances of winning are remarkably low, but then the prizes are also extremely high. It’s been said by economists who study the idea that the lion’s share do not purchase a card with the rational assumption of winning. Zimbet is founded on one of the national or the United Kingston football leagues and involves determining the results of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other shoe, pamper the considerably rich of the society and travelers. Up till not long ago, there was a considerably substantial tourist industry, founded on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and connected bloodshed have carved into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which contain gaming tables, slots and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which have gaming machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforestated talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are also 2 horse racing tracks in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Given that the market has shrunk by beyond 40% in recent years and with the connected deprivation and bloodshed that has come about, it is not known how well the tourist industry which is the backbone of Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will carry through until things improve is basically unknown.
