The prospect of living in Zimbabwe is somewhat of a risk at the moment, so you might imagine that there would be little desire for going to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens. In reality, it seems to be working the opposite way, with the atrocious market circumstances leading to a higher desire to gamble, to attempt to find a quick win, a way out of the crisis.

For almost all of the locals living on the meager nearby earnings, there are two popular styles of gambling, the state lotto and Zimbet. As with practically everywhere else on the globe, there is a national lottery where the probabilities of winning are extremely small, but then the jackpots are also extremely big. It’s been said by economists who understand the concept that the lion’s share don’t purchase a card with the rational expectation of hitting. Zimbet is based on one of the domestic or the British football leagues and involves determining the outcomes of future matches.

Zimbabwe’s gambling dens, on the other hand, cater to the very rich of the state and tourists. Up till a short time ago, there was a considerably substantial tourist industry, centered on nature trips and trips to Victoria Falls. The economic collapse and connected violence have cut into this trade.

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

In addition to Zimbabwe’s gambling dens and the above talked about lottery and Zimbet (which is quite like a parimutuel betting system), there is a total of two horse racing complexes in the nation: the Matabeleland Turf Club in Bulawayo (the 2nd city) and the Borrowdale Park in Harare.

Given that the market has shrunk by beyond 40 percent in recent years and with the connected deprivation and violence that has resulted, it is not well-known how well the tourist business which funds Zimbabwe’s gambling halls will do in the near future. How many of the casinos will still be around till conditions improve is merely not known.
