The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a gamble at the current time, so you might think that there would be little appetite for going to Zimbabwe’s casinos. In reality, it seems to be operating the other way, with the desperate economic circumstances leading to a larger desire to wager, to attempt to discover a quick win, a way from the crisis.
For the majority of the citizens surviving on the tiny nearby wages, there are 2 established types of wagering, the national lottery and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the planet, there is a national lotto where the chances of profiting are extremely low, but then the jackpots are also very big. It’s been said by economists who look at the subject that most don’t purchase a card with a real expectation of winning. Zimbet is centered on one of the national or the British football leagues and involves determining the results of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other hand, pamper the astonishingly rich of the nation and tourists. Up till a short while ago, there was a incredibly substantial vacationing business, founded on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and associated bloodshed have cut into this market.
Amongst Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and one armed bandits, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has only slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slots. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which have gaming tables, one armed bandits and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which have slot machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the aforementioned talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there is a total of 2 horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has shrunk by more than forty percent in recent years and with the associated poverty and violence that has cropped up, it isn’t understood how healthy the vacationing industry which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the near future. How many of them will carry through till conditions improve is basically not known.
