The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a risk at the current time, so you could think that there might be very little affinity for patronizing Zimbabwe’s gambling halls. In fact, it seems to be functioning the opposite way, with the critical market circumstances leading to a greater desire to wager, to try and find a quick win, a way out of the situation.
For many of the locals living on the meager nearby earnings, there are 2 common styles of gaming, the national lotto and Zimbet. Just as with most everywhere else in the world, there is a national lotto where the chances of succeeding are remarkably low, but then the prizes are also surprisingly high. It’s been said by economists who understand the situation that most don’t buy a ticket with an actual expectation of winning. Zimbet is based on either the domestic or the British soccer leagues and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.
Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other foot, pamper the exceedingly rich of the society and travelers. Up until a short time ago, there was a exceptionally large tourist industry, centered on safaris and trips to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and associated bloodshed have carved 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 slot machines, and the Plumtree gambling hall, which has just the slot machines. The Zambesi Valley Hotel and Entertainment Center in Kariba also has only slots. Mutare has the Monclair Hotel and Casino and the Leopard Rock Hotel and Casino, the two of which have gaming tables, one armed bandits and video poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, the pair of which offer video poker machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens 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 state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd municipality) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has contracted by more than 40 percent in the past few years and with the associated deprivation and bloodshed that has cropped up, it is not well-known how well the vacationing industry which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the near future. How many of them will survive until conditions improve is basically unknown.
