The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you may think that there might be very little desire for visiting Zimbabwe’s casinos. In reality, it appears to be working the opposite way, with the crucial economic conditions creating a bigger desire to play, to attempt to find a quick win, a way from the situation.

For almost all of the people surviving on the abysmal nearby money, there are two common styles of betting, the national lottery and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else on the globe, there is a state lotto where the chances of succeeding are unbelievably small, but then the prizes are also surprisingly large. It’s been said by market analysts who look at the concept that the lion’s share do not buy a card with the rational expectation of winning. Zimbet is founded on either the local or the British football divisions and involves determining the results of future games.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, pamper the very rich of the society and sightseers. Up till recently, there was a very large vacationing industry, founded on nature trips and visits to Victoria Falls. The economic collapse and associated crime have cut into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree Casino, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slot machines. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which contain table games, slot machines and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which has video poker machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the previously talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are also two horse racing complexes in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Given that the economy has diminished by more than forty percent in the past few years and with the associated poverty and crime that has resulted, it is not understood how healthy the tourist business which supports Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the next few years. How many of them will carry through until things improve is merely unknown.
