The act of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you may imagine that there would be little desire for patronizing Zimbabwe's casinos. In reality, it appears to be working the opposite way, with the desperate economic conditions creating a greater desire to wager, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way from the crisis.

For almost all of the people subsisting on the tiny nearby money, there are two common types of betting, the state lottery and Zimbet. Just as with most everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the odds of hitting are remarkably small, but then the prizes are also extremely high. It's been said by market analysts who look at the subject that many do not purchase a ticket with the rational expectation of profiting. Zimbet is built on one of the national or the British football divisions and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.

Zimbabwe's gambling dens, on the other hand, look after the incredibly rich of the society and vacationers. Up until a short while ago, there was a incredibly substantial tourist industry, founded on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and associated bloodshed have carved into this trade.

Among Zimbabwe's gambling halls, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree Casino, which has only slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slots. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which contain gaming tables, slot machines and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have slot machines and tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe's gambling dens and the above mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are also two horse racing tracks in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Given that the market has diminished by beyond 40 percent in the past few years and with the connected poverty and conflict that has resulted, it is not well-known how healthy the vacationing industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe's gambling halls will do in the near future. How many of them will survive till conditions get better is simply not known.
