There is a captivating story to the Cambodia casinos that sit just across the dividing line from next door Thailand, where gambling den gambling is not allowed. Eight casinos are based in a generally tiny location in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia casinos is in an excellent spot, a 3 to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular betting centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a thriving business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The astonishing income accrued from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few restrictions constraints for casino ownership. Ownership is assumed to be largely Thai; although, investment sources are vague. The borders are formally open from 0900 to 1700, and despite the fact visas are supposedly necessary to cross, there are means around this, as is correct of most border crossings.

The 1st Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in 1998, leaving only a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored bateau gambling hall, contains 150 slot machine games and 60 table games. The Naga gambling den is open all hours with 42 tables of mini-baccarat banque, four tables of chemin de fer, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling den in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in 1999 and the Golden Crown soon opened. There are one hundred and fifty slot machine games and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slots and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights 300 one armed bandits and 70 tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machines and ninety six table games, including eighty seven baccarat chemin de fer (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 tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the eight gambling dens in Poipet, again a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 97 table games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a comprehensive vacation and hotel compound that features numerous amenities aside from the gambling hall, which houses ten thousand square feet of 130 slot machine games and 88 gaming tables.
