The act of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you could think that there might be very little desire for supporting Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In reality, it appears to be operating the other way around, with the crucial market conditions creating a greater eagerness to wager, to try and find a fast win, a way from the crisis.

For most of the locals surviving on the abysmal local money, there are two dominant types of gambling, the national lotto and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else on the planet, there is a national lotto where the chances of hitting are unbelievably tiny, but then the prizes are also surprisingly high. It’s been said by market analysts who study the subject that the majority do not buy a ticket with a real expectation of hitting. Zimbet is founded on one of the local or the British soccer divisions and involves determining the results of future games.

Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other hand, pander to the astonishingly rich of the society and vacationers. Up until recently, there was a considerably substantial vacationing business, founded on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The economic woes and associated crime have carved into this trade.

Among Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has only slot machine games. 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 table games, slot machines 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 gaming machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the above talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there is a total of two horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Seeing as that the market has deflated by more than 40% in the past few years and with the associated deprivation and bloodshed that has come to pass, it is not well-known how well the tourist business which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will still be around till things improve is basically not known.
