There is a captivating history to the Cambodia casinos that reside just across the dividing line from next door Thailand, in which gambling hall wagering is not allowed. Eight gambling halls are anchored in a relatively small location in the city of Poipet in Cambodia. This group of Cambodia gambling halls is in a prime destination, a 3 to four hour travel from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 most popular betting locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling dens do a huge business with Thai workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with only very couple of Westerners. The amazing income accrued from the gambling halls ranges from 7.5 million dollars to more than 12.5 million, and there are a number of limitations requirements for casino ownership. Ownership is required to be mostly Thai; however, financing sources are cryptic. The borders are ceremoniously open from 9:00 a.m. to 1700, and despite the fact visas are apparently necessary to cross, there are methods around this, as is real of many borders.
