There is an appealing background to the Cambodia gambling halls that sit just across the border from next door Thailand, where gambling den gaming is illegal. Eight gambling dens are situated in a generally tiny space in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This band of Cambodia gambling halls is in an excellent destination, a three to four hour drive from Bangkok and Macao, the two most popular gambling locations in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai laborers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a couple of Westerners. The amazing income acquired from the gambling halls ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a number of limitations requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is required to be largely Thai; still, investment sources are cryptic. The borders are officially open from 09:00 to 17:00, and though visas are supposedly required to cross, there are means around this, as is accurate of many borders.

The initial Cambodia gambling dens opened in Phnom Penh in the mid nineties, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving only a single gambling den in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored boat casino, contains 150 slots and sixty tables. The Naga gambling den is open 24 hours with forty two tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of chemin de fer, ten of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and one each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The original casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown before long opened. A total of 150 slot machines and 5 table games at the Golden Crown and 104 slot machine games and sixty eight gaming tables at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort highlights three hundred slot machine games and 70 tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 96 table games, including 87 baccarat (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 one armed bandits and 66 of the normal table games, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. One more of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, again in a motel, is the Princess Casino with one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and 97 casino games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-inclusive resort and hotel building that features a number of luxuries accompanying the gambling den, which has 10,000 square feet of one hundred and thirty slot machines and 88 tables.
