CAMBODIA CASINOS
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 are travelling to this area of the world, you may want to stop in Cambodia to see what their casinos have to offer.
CAMBODIA opened a luxury, US$100 million casino on Friday hoping to attract more foreign tourists and promote its fast-growing entertainment industry, casino owners said.
The Titan King Casino, located along the Vietnam border, is one of a number that have sprung up along the country’s frontiers with Vietnam and Thailand, attracting thousands of gamblers.
The Ministry of Finance says Cambodia earned US$19 million from 29 casinos in 2008. But revenue fell to US$17 million in 2009 because of a decline in tourist arrivals and a border dispute with Thailand.
The Titan King Casino is owned by Mr Kith Thieng, a business tycoon close to Prime Minister Hun Sen.
In a message posted on the casino’s website, Mr Kith Thieng said the town of Bavet, where the casino is located, was fast becoming an entertainment centre, ‘much like Las Vegas and Macau’. Bavet is 68 miles (110 kilometres) south-east of the capital Phnom Penh.
Other than 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.
Few Cambodian Casinos are like Casino O Samet, Casino Tropicana, Golden Crown Casino, Grand Diamond City, Ho Wah Genting Poipet Casino
THESE TOO COME INTO PLAY!
Maybe you are a good old player, but that doesn’t guarantee you would be winning at any given day. In fact nothing can guarantee it, but there may be reasons behind about how lucky you can be on a certain day. Scientists like Professor Radin feel that the status of the moon, the earth’s magnetic field have some connections with ones luck. The evidences are purely based on data.
During the full moon the earth’s geomagnetic field is the weakest. The professor believes that this is the time one has the best chance of winning. He said that betting should avoid the casinos during the time phase of the quarter moon. Although being just generalizations they seem to have a scientific side to it.
The case is just the opposite with lotteries. The pick 3 styles of lotteries seem to pay more during the quarter moon. So it may be a good idea if you choose your game according to the moon. Increasing your winning chances in any way is all that should matter.
Players arriving with a positive attitude to the tables too have better chances of winning. When you think only of winning, you subconsciously choose the table where the players seem to be happy. It is because that is the table that seems to be paying out the most. When you come thinking that it’s just not your day, you tend not to fuss much when you lose. This is how the gamblers psyche behaves.
So keep track of the days when you are winning or losing. You should plan out going to a casino accordingly and also taking care of the moon. Choose your game wisely. Your gut feeling should be telling you when your day is. On days when you don’t get that adrenalin rush stay away from losing money!
