The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you may think that there would be very little affinity for supporting Zimbabwe’s casinos. Actually, it appears to be functioning the other way, with the atrocious market circumstances leading to a higher ambition to gamble, to attempt to locate a fast win, a way from the difficulty.
For almost all of the people surviving on the abysmal local earnings, there are 2 popular styles of gaming, the state lotto and Zimbet. Just as with practically everywhere else in the world, there is a national lottery where the probabilities of profiting are unbelievably small, but then the winnings are also extremely large. It’s been said by market analysts who look at the situation that most don’t buy a card with a real assumption of winning. Zimbet is built on either the national or the English football divisions and involves determining the outcomes of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other hand, look after the very rich of the country and travelers. Until recently, there was a very large sightseeing industry, centered on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and associated conflict have carved into this market.
Amongst 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 hall, which has only slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just one armed bandits. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which have gaming tables, slots and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which offer slot machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforementioned alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there is a total of two horse racing complexes in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the second metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Given that the market has deflated by more than forty percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and crime that has arisen, it isn’t understood how healthy the vacationing industry which supports Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the in the years to come. How many of the casinos will carry through till things get better is basically unknown.
