There is an appealing background to the Cambodia casinos that reside just across the dividing line from next door Thailand, where gambling hall gaming is against the law. Eight gambling dens are based in a generally tiny area in the metropolis of Poipet in Cambodia. This conclave of Cambodia casinos is in a prime location, a 3 to four hour trip from Bangkok and Macao, the 2 biggest wagering locations in Asia. Cambodia gambling halls do a huge business with Thai blue-collar workers and travelers from Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, with just a few Westerners. The astonishing capital accrued from the casinos ranges from seven and a half million dollars to more than 12.5 million dollars, and there are a few controls requirements for gambling hall ownership. Ownership is presumed to be largely Thai; although, financial sources are vague. The borders are ceremoniously open from 0900 to 1700, and despite the fact visas are for all intents and purposes required to pass, there are means around this, as is correct of most border crossings.

The Naga, an anchored boat casino, contains 150 slot machine games and sixty tables. The Naga gambling den never closes with forty two tables of mini-baccarat chemin de fer, four tables of vingt-et-un, 10 of roulette, 2 of Caribbean Stud Poker, and 1 each of Pai-Gow and Tai-Sai.
The first gambling hall in Poipet, the Holiday Palace, premiered in 1999 and the Golden Crown before long opened. A total of one hundred and fifty slot machine games and five table games at the Golden Crown and one hundred and four slots and sixty eight table games at the Holiday Palace.
