The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the moment, so you may imagine that there would be little desire for supporting Zimbabwe’s casinos. In fact, it appears to be functioning the opposite way, with the desperate economic circumstances leading to a larger ambition to bet, to try and find a quick win, a way from the difficulty.

For almost all of the people subsisting on the tiny nearby wages, there are two established forms of wagering, the national lotto and Zimbet. Just as with almost everywhere else on the globe, there is a state lottery where the probabilities of hitting are unbelievably tiny, but then the jackpots are also very large. It’s been said by market analysts who look at the situation that most don’t purchase a card with the rational belief of hitting. Zimbet is centered on either the domestic or the British soccer divisions and involves determining the results of future games.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other foot, cater to the incredibly rich of the society and sightseers. Up till a short time ago, there was a exceptionally big tourist industry, based on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The economic woes and connected bloodshed have carved into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and one armed bandits, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which have gaming tables, one armed bandits and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which has video poker machines and tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the aforementioned talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a parimutuel betting system), there are a total of 2 horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Given that the market has contracted by more than 40% in recent years and with the connected poverty and conflict that has resulted, it isn’t well-known how healthy the tourist industry which is the backbone of Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the in the years to come. How many of the casinos will carry on till conditions improve is simply unknown.
