The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you may think that there would be very little affinity for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In reality, it seems to be operating the other way around, with the awful economic conditions creating a greater eagerness to bet, to try and find a fast win, a way from the crisis.

For nearly all of the people subsisting on the tiny nearby wages, there are 2 dominant forms of betting, the state lottery and Zimbet. As with practically everywhere else on the planet, there is a state lotto where the chances of succeeding are surprisingly tiny, but then the prizes are also unbelievably big. It’s been said by market analysts who look at the subject that many don’t purchase a ticket with an actual expectation of winning. Zimbet is centered on one of the domestic or the United Kingston soccer leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, cater to the astonishingly rich of the nation and tourists. Up until recently, there was a very substantial sightseeing industry, built on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The economic anxiety and associated violence have carved into this trade.

Among Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, 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 Casino, which has only slots. 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 contain gaming tables, slot machines and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which has gaming machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the aforestated alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the market has diminished by beyond 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated poverty and violence that has come about, it isn’t known how healthy the vacationing business which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of them will survive until conditions improve is basically not known.
