There is a captivating story to the Cambodia casinos that sit just over the dividing line from nearby Thailand, where gambling hall gaming is illegal. Eight casinos are based in a relatively tiny space in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling halls is in a perfect destination, a three to 4 hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular wagering centers in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a thriving business with Thai blue-collar workers and guests from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The phenomenal income gained from the casinos ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than twelve and a half million dollars, and there are a few controls requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; although, financing sources are ambiguous. The borders are formally open from 9:00 a.m. to 1700, and although visas are apparently required to cross, there are methods around this, as is true of many border crossings.

The 1st Cambodia gambling dens premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were forced to close in 1998, leaving only a single casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, a moored barge casino, highlights one hundred and fifty slots and 60 tables. The Naga gambling den never closes with 42 tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, 4 tables of vingt-et-un, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The initial gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, opened in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly opened. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machines and 5 tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machines and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace. The newest Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features three hundred slot machine games and 70 gaming tables and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six slot machine games and ninety six table games, including eighty seven baccarat (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Additionally, there is the Casino Tropicana, with 135 one armed bandits and sixty six of the common gaming tables, as well as 1 table of Casino Stud Poker. An additional of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, also a part of a motel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slot machine games and 97 table games. The Star Vegas Casino is is located in a comprehensive vacation and hotel compound that highlights a number of comforts on top of the gambling hall, which has 10,000 sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty one armed bandits and 88 tables.
