The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the current time, so you may think that there might be very little desire for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In fact, it seems to be functioning the opposite way around, with the critical economic conditions leading to a greater eagerness to bet, to attempt to locate a fast win, a way from the difficulty.
For most of the citizens subsisting on the tiny nearby earnings, there are 2 common styles of betting, the national lottery and Zimbet. As with practically everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the chances of profiting are remarkably small, but then the jackpots are also very high. It’s been said by financial experts who understand the situation that most do not purchase a ticket with the rational belief of profiting. Zimbet is founded on either the local 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 extremely rich of the society and vacationers. Until not long ago, there was a very big sightseeing industry, based on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and associated bloodshed have cut into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, 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 Casino, which has just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slots. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which contain table games, one armed bandits and video machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, each of which have video poker machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the above alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Seeing as that the market has contracted by more than forty percent in recent years and with the connected poverty and violence that has come to pass, it is not known how well the sightseeing business which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will survive until things get better is basically unknown.
