The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the moment, so you could envision that there would be little affinity for visiting Zimbabwe's casinos. In reality, it appears to be operating the other way, with the awful market circumstances creating a greater eagerness to play, to attempt to locate a fast win, a way from the situation.

For most of the citizens surviving on the tiny local money, there are two popular forms of gaming, the state lotto and Zimbet. Just as with almost everywhere else on the globe, there is a state lotto where the odds of profiting are surprisingly low, but then the winnings are also extremely large. It's been said by economists who understand the situation that the majority don't purchase a ticket with a real expectation of hitting. Zimbet is based on either the local or the British football divisions and involves predicting the outcomes of future games.

Zimbabwe's gambling halls, on the other shoe, cater to the very rich of the society and sightseers. Until not long ago, there was a exceptionally substantial tourist industry, centered on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The market anxiety and associated conflict have cut into this market.

Among Zimbabwe's casinos, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree Casino, which has only slots. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which offer gaming tables, one armed bandits and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the two of which have video poker machines and blackjack, roulette, and craps tables.

In addition to Zimbabwe's casinos and the above alluded to lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a pools system), there is a total of two horse racing tracks in the country: 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 recent years and with the associated deprivation and conflict that has come about, it isn't well-known how healthy the sightseeing business which is the foundation for Zimbabwe's gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of them will carry through until things improve is simply unknown.
