The act of living in Zimbabwe is something of a gamble at the current time, so you might imagine that there would be little affinity for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. Actually, it appears to be operating the opposite way, with the awful economic circumstances leading to a higher desire to bet, to try and find a fast win, a way out of the difficulty.
For the majority of the locals subsisting on the meager local earnings, there are 2 dominant styles of wagering, the national lottery and Zimbet. As with almost everywhere else on the globe, there is a state lottery where the probabilities of hitting are unbelievably tiny, but then the prizes are also extremely big. It’s been said by market analysts who study the situation that many do not buy a ticket with an actual expectation of profiting. Zimbet is centered on either the local or the UK football leagues and involves determining the results of future games.
Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other foot, look after the exceedingly rich of the nation and vacationers. Until not long ago, there was a extremely large sightseeing industry, based on safaris and visits to Victoria Falls. The market collapse and connected crime have cut into this trade.
Among Zimbabwe’s gambling halls, there are 2 in the capital, Harare, the Carribea Bay Resort and Casino, which has 5 gaming tables and slot machines, and the Plumtree Casino, 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 offer gaming tables, slot machines and electronic poker machines, and Victoria Falls has the Elephant Hills Hotel and Casino and the Makasa Sun Hotel and Casino, each of which offer video poker machines and table games.
In addition to Zimbabwe’s casinos and the aforementioned mentioned lottery and Zimbet (which is considerably like a parimutuel betting system), there are a total of two horse racing complexes in the state: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.
Since the market has shrunk by more than 40% in the past few years and with the connected deprivation and bloodshed that has come about, it is not well-known how healthy the tourist business which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling dens will do in the next few years. How many of them will carry on till conditions improve is merely unknown.
