The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the moment, so you could envision that there would be very little affinity for patronizing Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In reality, it appears to be operating the opposite way around, with the critical economic conditions leading to a greater eagerness to play, to try and discover a fast win, a way out of the difficulty.

For almost all of the citizens living on the meager nearby earnings, there are 2 established types of gaming, the national lotto and Zimbet. Just as with most everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the odds of hitting are extremely low, but then the prizes are also very high. It’s been said by market analysts who look at the idea that many don’t buy a ticket with a real assumption of hitting. Zimbet is based on one of the domestic or the British soccer leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other foot, mollycoddle the exceedingly rich of the country and travelers. Up till a short time ago, there was a very big sightseeing industry, based on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated violence have carved into this market.

Among 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 slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slots. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which offer gaming tables, slots and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which has gaming machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforementioned talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there are also 2 horse racing tracks in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Seeing as that the economy has shrunk by beyond 40% in recent years and with the associated poverty and violence that has arisen, it is not well-known how well the sightseeing industry which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the near future. How many of the casinos will carry through until conditions get better is basically unknown.
