The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you could think that there would be very little desire for patronizing Zimbabwe’s gambling halls. In reality, it appears to be working the other way around, with the atrocious market circumstances leading to a bigger ambition to gamble, to attempt to discover a quick win, a way from the crisis.

For most of the locals living on the tiny nearby wages, there are 2 dominant styles of gambling, the national lotto and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the planet, there is a state lotto where the odds of winning are unbelievably small, but then the winnings are also surprisingly high. It’s been said by economists who study the subject that many do not buy a card with a real belief of winning. Zimbet is based on one of the domestic or the British soccer divisions and involves determining the results of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, on the other shoe, cater to the very rich of the society and sightseers. Up till a short time ago, there was a extremely big tourist industry, centered on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market woes and associated crime 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 five 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 just slot machines. Mutare contains the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the pair of which offer table games, slots and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which has video poker machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling halls and the aforementioned mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there are a total of two horse racing tracks in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Since the market has diminished by more than forty percent in the past few years and with the connected deprivation and crime that has resulted, it is not understood how healthy the sightseeing business which is the backbone of Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the near future. How many of them will carry on until conditions get better is simply unknown.
