The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the current time, so you might think that there might be very little desire for going to Zimbabwe's gambling halls. In fact, it appears to be operating the other way around, with the atrocious market circumstances creating a greater ambition to play, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way from the difficulty.

For almost all of the locals subsisting on the tiny local wages, there are 2 established forms of gambling, the national lotto and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else in the world, there is a national lotto where the odds of succeeding are remarkably small, but then the jackpots are also unbelievably big. It's been said by economists who study the subject that the lion's share do not purchase a ticket with a real assumption of profiting. Zimbet is founded on either the local or the English soccer divisions and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe's casinos, on the other foot, look after the astonishingly rich of the nation and travelers. Until not long ago, there was a very substantial tourist industry, based on nature trips and visits to Victoria Falls. The market woes and connected violence have cut into this trade.

Amongst Zimbabwe's gambling dens, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has five gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only one armed bandits. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have gaming tables, slots and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have gaming machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe's casinos and the above talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there are a total of two horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the economy has shrunk by beyond 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated poverty and conflict that has arisen, it is not well-known how healthy the sightseeing business which funds Zimbabwe's casinos will do in the next few years. How many of them will be alive until conditions get better is merely unknown.
