The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a gamble at the current time, so you may imagine that there would be little desire for patronizing Zimbabwe’s casinos. In fact, it seems to be working the other way, with the atrocious economic circumstances leading to a greater eagerness to play, to try and locate a fast win, a way from the situation.

For many of the people living on the meager nearby money, there are two common forms of gambling, the state lottery and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else on the planet, there is a national lotto where the probabilities of winning are remarkably low, but then the prizes are also very high. It’s been said by financial experts who study the subject that most don’t buy a card with the rational assumption of winning. Zimbet is founded on one of the local or the UK soccer leagues and involves determining the results of future games.

Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other foot, pamper the exceedingly rich of the country and vacationers. Up until a short time ago, there was a exceptionally big sightseeing industry, centered on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The economic anxiety and associated violence have cut into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which offer gaming tables, slots and video machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, each of which have slot machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforementioned mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a parimutuel betting system), there are a total of two horse racing complexes in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Seeing as that the market has shrunk by beyond 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated poverty and bloodshed that has resulted, it isn’t understood how healthy the sightseeing industry which is the backbone of Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the next few years. How many of them will still be around until things improve is merely not known.
