The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the current time, so you may envision that there might be very little desire for supporting Zimbabwe’s gambling halls. Actually, it seems to be functioning the opposite way around, with the desperate market conditions creating a larger desire to gamble, to try and locate a quick win, a way out of the problems.
For the majority of the locals surviving on the tiny nearby money, there are 2 popular forms of wagering, the state lottery and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else in the world, there is a state lottery where the probabilities of hitting are extremely tiny, but then the jackpots are also surprisingly big. It’s been said by economists who study the situation that the majority don’t purchase a ticket with an actual assumption of profiting. Zimbet is centered on one of the local or the UK football leagues and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, cater to the very rich of the state and travelers. Until a short while ago, there was a considerably substantial vacationing industry, based on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated bloodshed have cut into this market.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, there are two in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has only slot machine games. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slots. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which offer gaming tables, 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 video poker machines and tables.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the aforestated alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is very like a pools system), there is a total of two horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Given that the market has diminished by beyond 40% in recent years and with the associated poverty and bloodshed that has arisen, it isn’t known how healthy the tourist industry which is the foundation for Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of them will be alive until conditions get better is simply unknown.
