Police Raid Fishing Game at Midnight (VIDEO)

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

That one is an older US M35 Deuce and a Half.

Give money for in game points. Each shot uses points. Kill targets to try get more points. When you want to stop they pay out depending on what amount of points you got.

You can be lucly but as with all games that is designed for making money house always win in the long run.

They even got those machines in legit casinos.

That's a pretty brazen display--the shop.
So I guess all those games get flown or shipped in somehow.
I used to play those games-started when they were token operated in Soya Mao. Little half-naked kids were trained to grab handfuls of coin from the basket you kept between your feet--then the girl would short you on exchangr, not mention you handing out on requestcoins for girls to play. Then they upgraded to cash and for a while there you might actually win 50 bucks, then they started ignoring barang or not paying directly and now this. I've seen plenty a girl ahead 400, 500, even 800 dollars then usually sink herself to nothing, hand out again or not. Then the eyes on winners for debts owef, the whole dynamic of hustlemania. Makes you wonder why the hip pouch cash girl never got robbed.
I wonder how many of us watched that video to see if we recognized any of those girls? Too--where are all the slinky Khmer guys? I guess all the smart ones snuck out the back door.

Isn't it customary to belittle gambling in general, everywhere? Unless one wins, I mean.

To be honest, if FPS's in "The West" paid...
