Most people don't realize that Cambodia is a premier gambling destination. However, there are over 20 casinos in this country, and the gaming industry is growing strongly in popularity.

If you're traveling to this area of the world, you may want to consider stopping in Cambodia to see what their casinos have to offer.

Other than Macau, China's version of Las Vegas, the city of Poipet in Cambodia is the largest gaming center in Asia. This city is home to a number of casinos, which have a combined income over $7.5 to $12.5 million (300 - 500 million baht) every year. Although residents of Cambodia enjoy small-bet tables and gaming machines, the real business in this country is the high roller industry. Most casinos in Cambodia offer private tables and VIP rooms for those wishing to bet large amounts of money.

According to travel agencies in the area, the vast majority of gamblers in Cambodia are Thai, though they also see a number of tourists from Japan, South Korea, and other Asian countries. Although gambling is very popular in Poipet, it is no longer allowed in the capital city of Phnom Penh, except at one casino resort. In 1998, the government banned gambling within 200 km of the city to help prevent problems with gambling addiction.

Cambodia's largest casino is the Holiday Palace Hotel & Resort, but there are a number of other great casino locations you can consider as well. Before you start gambling, make sure that you're following Cambodia gambling laws, and ask about payout regulations, dress code, and other casino-specific rules before you leave your hotel to visit a casino.
