The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you could imagine that there would be very little appetite for patronizing Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it appears to be working the other way, with the awful market circumstances creating a larger ambition to bet, to try and discover a quick win, a way out of the situation.

For almost all of the people surviving on the meager nearby money, there are 2 dominant types of betting, the national lottery and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the chances of hitting are unbelievably small, but then the jackpots are also unbelievably big. It’s been said by financial experts who look at the situation that the lion’s share don’t purchase a card with a real expectation of profiting. Zimbet is founded on one of the local or the UK soccer divisions and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, pamper the very rich of the nation and sightseers. Up till recently, there was a incredibly substantial sightseeing industry, built on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated crime have cut 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 slots, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slots. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which contain gaming tables, one armed bandits and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which have video poker machines and tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the above mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a parimutuel betting system), there is a total of 2 horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the market has contracted by more than 40 percent in the past few years and with the connected deprivation and crime that has arisen, it is not well-known how healthy the sightseeing industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of them will carry through until things get better is merely not known.
