The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the moment, so you could envision that there might be little affinity for supporting Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In fact, it appears to be functioning the other way around, with the atrocious market circumstances creating a greater eagerness to gamble, to try and discover a fast win, a way from the situation.
For nearly all of the citizens surviving on the meager local money, there are 2 established styles of betting, the national lottery and Zimbet. Just as with almost everywhere else in the world, there is a state lotto where the probabilities of succeeding are extremely tiny, but then the jackpots are also remarkably large. It’s been said by financial experts who look at the idea that the majority do not purchase a ticket with a real expectation of profiting. Zimbet is founded on one of the national or the English football leagues and involves predicting the results of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, pander to the considerably rich of the nation and travelers. Up until a short while ago, there was a considerably large sightseeing business, founded on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and connected crime 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 only slots. 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, the two of which offer gaming tables, slots and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which has video poker machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforestated alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there is a total of 2 horse racing complexes in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd metropolis) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Given that the economy has shrunk by more than 40% in the past few years and with the connected deprivation and crime that has cropped up, it isn’t well-known how healthy the tourist industry which is the backbone of Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the near future. How many of the casinos will carry on until conditions improve is merely not known.
