There is an appealing story to the Cambodia casinos that sit just across the border from nearby Thailand, where gambling den gambling is not legal. Eight gambling halls are anchored in a relatively tiny area in the municipality of Poipet in Cambodia. This collection of Cambodia gambling dens is in a perfect destination, a three to 4 hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 largest gambling centers in Asia. Cambodia casinos do a thriving business with Thai laborers and tourists from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very few Westerners. The phenomenal capital gained from the casinos ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a number of limitations requirements for gambling den ownership. Ownership is presumed to be largely Thai; however, funding sources are cryptic. The borders are formally open from 09:00 to 17:00, and despite the fact visas are supposedly required to pass, there are means around this, as is real of many border crossings.

The first Cambodia gambling halls premiered in Phnom Penh in 1994, but were required to close in 1998, leaving just 1 casino in the capital, the Naga Resort. The Naga, an anchored boat gambling hall, contains 150 slots and 60 table games. The Naga gambling den never closes with 42 tables of mini-punto banco, 4 tables of vingt-et-un, 10 of roulette, two of Caribbean Stud Poker, and a single table each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.

The original casino in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in the late nineties and the Golden Crown quickly followed. A total of 150 slot machine games and five tables at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slot machines and 68 table games at the Holiday Palace. The newer Holiday Palace Casino and Resort features 300 slot machines and seventy table games and the Princess Hotel and Casino, also in Poipet, has one hundred and sixty six one armed bandits and ninety six gaming tables, including eighty seven baccarat banque (the most popular game), Fan Tan, and Pai Gow. Also, there is the Casino Tropicana, with one hundred and thirty five one armed bandits and sixty six of the common tables, as well as one table of Casino Stud Poker. Another one of the 8 gambling dens in Poipet, also a part of a hotel, is the Princess Casino with 166 slots and 97 table games. The Star Vegas Casino is part of an all-around vacation and hotel complex that features many comforts in addition to the gambling hall, which has ten thousand sq.ft. of one hundred and thirty slot machines and 88 tables.
