Dating Thailand series
Most forms of gambling is illegal in Thailand they have their state government sponsored lottery and thats about it for those in Thailand whether locals or tourist who like to gamble on the casino tables and slot machines the place to travel to is Poipet.Poipet is this area of south east Asia little Las vegas with Thai people traveling long distances to try their luck here.
Poi pet is a Cambodian town on the Thailand/Cambodia border It is a key crossing point between the two countries and a main center for visa runs.
A strip of casinos operate between these 2 border points allowing Thais to gamble here without having to enter Cambodia itself.
Many casinos in town. It is sometimes very dangerous to walk at night. However many deals which casinos offer are hard to refuse. Go to a casino and register as a member, not a hotel guest, you can get free drinks and free transport to Bangkok. If you change more than 15,000 into gambling chips, then you can get a free room.if you use the Chips in casino and get normal chips you can get them back to cash without charge when you have finished gambling for the night.. One casino recommended by a traveler: Poipet Holiday Palace.
Poipet has continued to increase the number of hotel/casinos yearly. There are now at least eight such casinos in operation and more are being built while existing ones have recently undergone major upgrades.The casinos are a windfall for the Cambodian economy as thousands of Thais travel here every week and pouring hundreds of thousands of Baht into the casinos coffers.
These are the 8 Casinos available to gamble at they are the Golden Crown resort,Grand Diamond City Hotel,Holiday Palace resort and Casino,Ho Wah Genting Poipet Casino,Poipet Casino Resort,Princess Hotel and Casino,Star Vegas international Resort and casino and Tropicana Resort and casino.
These Casinos provide international currency exchange services and happy to take Thai Baht so there is no need to change money into the Cambodian currency and not a good idea either as no one will be lining up to change it back.
The Food is reasonably priced at the casinos it is a good selection of food for westerners and Thais more importantly it is safe to eat and well prepared as one would expect from a Casino,rooms range from 1000 baht upwards some casinos have great deals available with room included so worth shopping around the casinos for the best deal.
For out Thai love Asia singles men coming to Thailand to meet our Thai dating girls this is one outing worth considering as most of the Thai girls will not have been to a casino and would enjoy the experience of a dabble on the Roulette,Poker or slot machines there is also a large market on the Thai side of the border with cheap clothes and odds and ends if you are going for a day trip and not planning on going with a organized Visa company you can get there by public air-conditioned bus at the Northern Bus Terminal in Bangkok to Aranyapathet. Bus fee is at 160 Baht for air-con and half price for non-A/C. Taking the train from Central Railway Station of Bangkok called "Hualumpong" is not a bad idea with two departures at 05:50 a.m. and 01:00 p.m. and arrive at 12:00 and 06:00 p.m., respectively. Only 3rd class and non-A/C trains running this route at the fare of 48 Baht. Some travel agents on Khaosan Road that are specialized on backpackers do offer this transport service by van at the cost of around 250-450 Baht.
From the Bus and Train Station in Aranyapathet, the Poipet border is roughly 6 kilometers away. You can take the rickshaw to the border (or in Thai called Tuk-Tuk) at around 40-100 Baht depending upon how well you can barter
we hope our Thailand Love Asia couples have a safe and enjoyable travel and Casino experience in Poipet.
