The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you could think that there might be very little affinity for visiting Zimbabwe’s gambling halls. In fact, it appears to be working the opposite way, with the desperate economic circumstances creating a greater ambition to wager, to attempt to locate a quick win, a way out of the situation.

For many of the citizens surviving on the tiny local earnings, there are two dominant types of gambling, the national lotto and Zimbet. Just as with most everywhere else in the world, there is a state lotto where the chances of succeeding are surprisingly small, but then the prizes are also remarkably high. It’s been said by market analysts who understand the situation that most don’t purchase a ticket with the rational belief of hitting. Zimbet is built on either the national or the United Kingston football leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other hand, pamper the astonishingly rich of the state and sightseers. Until recently, there was a exceptionally large vacationing industry, based on nature trips and visits to Victoria Falls. The market woes and connected conflict 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 Casino, which has just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slot machines. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which have gaming tables, one armed bandits and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which have gaming machines and tables.

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

Seeing as that the economy has shrunk by beyond 40% in the past few years and with the connected poverty and bloodshed that has arisen, it isn’t well-known how well the vacationing business which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the near future. How many of them will survive until things get better is basically unknown.
