The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the moment, so you might imagine that there would be very little affinity for visiting Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In fact, it seems to be working the opposite way, with the awful economic circumstances creating a greater eagerness to wager, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way out of the difficulty.

For the majority of the people living on the tiny nearby money, there are two dominant styles of wagering, the national lottery and Zimbet. As with practically everywhere else on the globe, there is a national lottery where the odds of hitting are surprisingly tiny, but then the jackpots are also remarkably high. It’s been said by financial experts who look at the idea that most don’t buy a card with an actual assumption of hitting. Zimbet is founded on either the national or the UK football divisions and involves predicting the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s casinos, on the other foot, mollycoddle the astonishingly rich of the country and vacationers. Up till not long ago, there was a considerably substantial tourist business, built on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The market woes and connected bloodshed have carved into this trade.

Among Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has only slots. 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 two of which have gaming tables, slots and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which has slot machines and tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the previously mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there is a total of 2 horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Seeing as that the economy has contracted by beyond forty percent in the past few years and with the associated deprivation and bloodshed that has cropped up, it isn’t well-known how healthy the tourist industry which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the in the years to come. How many of them will still be around until conditions get better is basically unknown.
