The entire process of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you could think that there might be very little affinity for visiting Zimbabwe’s casinos. In reality, it seems to be operating the other way, with the atrocious market circumstances creating a greater ambition to gamble, to attempt to find a quick win, a way from the crisis.
For most of the people living on the abysmal nearby wages, there are two dominant types of wagering, the state lottery and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the planet, there is a national lottery where the odds of profiting are remarkably tiny, but then the prizes are also unbelievably high. It’s been said by financial experts who understand the situation that the lion’s share don’t purchase a card with an actual expectation of winning. Zimbet is based on one of the local or the United Kingston football leagues and involves predicting the outcomes of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other shoe, pander to the very rich of the state and travelers. Up till recently, there was a considerably large tourist business, based on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and connected violence have carved into this trade.
Among 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 just the slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which contain table games, one armed bandits and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, each of which offer gaming machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforestated alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are also 2 horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has diminished by more than 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated poverty and violence that has come to pass, it is not well-known how well the vacationing business which funds Zimbabwe’s casinos will do in the in the years to come. How many of them will carry through until things improve is merely not known.
