The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you could envision that there would be little desire for supporting Zimbabwe’s casinos. In fact, it appears to be operating the other way around, with the crucial market circumstances creating a greater ambition to bet, to attempt to locate a fast win, a way out of the situation.
For most of the people living on the meager nearby wages, there are 2 dominant forms of gaming, the state lotto and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the planet, there is a national lotto where the chances of winning are extremely tiny, but then the prizes are also surprisingly big. It’s been said by financial experts who study the concept that many don’t buy a ticket with a real belief of profiting. Zimbet is built on one of the national or the British football divisions and involves determining the results of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other hand, mollycoddle the very rich of the country and sightseers. Up till not long ago, there was a considerably large vacationing industry, centered on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The market woes and connected conflict have cut into this market.
Amongst Zimbabwe’s casinos, 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 just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slots. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which have table games, slot machines and video 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 gambling dens and the aforementioned mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there are also 2 horse racing complexes in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the economy has deflated by beyond forty percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and conflict that has resulted, it isn’t known how healthy the sightseeing business which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of them will carry through until things improve is merely unknown.
