The act of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a gamble at the moment, so you may imagine that there would be very little appetite for supporting Zimbabwe's casinos. In fact, it seems to be functioning the opposite way around, with the awful economic conditions leading to a larger ambition to wager, to try and find a quick win, a way from the problems.

For almost all of the citizens subsisting on the tiny local wages, there are 2 popular forms of gaming, the national lotto and Zimbet. As with most everywhere else on the globe, there is a national lotto where the odds of hitting are surprisingly low, but then the jackpots are also remarkably big. It's been said by market analysts who look at the subject that most don't purchase a card with an actual belief of profiting. Zimbet is built on one of the local or the United Kingston football divisions and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe's casinos, on the other foot, pander to the incredibly rich of the state and vacationers. Up until not long ago, there was a very big vacationing business, built on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and associated violence have carved into this market.

Amongst Zimbabwe's gambling dens, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slots, and the Plumtree gambling den, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has just slot machines. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, both of which contain table games, slot machines and video machines, and Victoria Falls houses the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, both of which have gaming machines and table games.

In addition to Zimbabwe's gambling halls and the aforestated mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a parimutuel betting system), there are a total of two horse racing tracks in the country: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Seeing as that the economy has shrunk by beyond forty percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and bloodshed that has arisen, it is not understood how healthy the vacationing industry which is the backbone of Zimbabwe's gambling halls will do in the next few years. How many of the casinos will carry through till conditions improve is merely not known.
