The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a gamble at the current time, so you could envision that there would be little desire for visiting Zimbabwe’s casinos. In reality, it appears to be operating the opposite way, with the desperate economic circumstances creating a larger desire to play, to try and find a fast win, a way from the difficulty.
For almost all of the citizens subsisting on the tiny local money, there are 2 popular types of wagering, the state lotto and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else on the planet, there is a state lotto where the chances of profiting are remarkably tiny, but then the winnings are also unbelievably high. It’s been said by financial experts who understand the subject that the majority do not buy a ticket with a real belief of profiting. Zimbet is built on either the local or the UK football leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other hand, pamper the exceedingly rich of the country and tourists. Up till a short while ago, there was a very big sightseeing business, built on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The economic anxiety and connected violence have carved into this trade.
Among Zimbabwe’s casinos, there are two 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 just the slot machine games. 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 pair of which offer table games, slot machines and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which offer slot machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the above talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there is a total of 2 horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the economy has shrunk by more than 40 percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and crime that has come about, it isn’t known how well the tourist business which funds Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the near future. How many of them will carry on until conditions get better is merely not known.
