Landlocked Kazakhstan has existed as a mystery to the western traveler for centuries, unknown from the pages of Marco Polo or Kipling. Few outsiders have been enlightened on the enchantment of this central Asian country, other than the salespersons who plied the Silk Road. Yet, due to the fact that Kazakhstan gained its independence in 1991 and above all under the astute and accommodating presidency of Nursultan Nazarbayev, the country has progressed. As the nation flourishes, so do Kazakhstan casinos. Flushed with oil money, it’s boom time in the betting enterprises of this prior soviet republic. There are 7 cities that have among them legal casino resources of which there are conclusively 28 such places. Indeed if you are craving for a gamble, the tables are the only game in town, as Kazakhstan casinos are the only betting operations justified there.

Most acclaimed to the devoted gamer would be the long-time capital and greatest city in the area, Almaty, that believable Las Vegas of central Asia, showing off no less than 18 casinos and counting. With an ascending 9% boost annually, the Kazakh economy has extended enormously in the last 10 years and with it the Kazakh craving for the gaming tables. The cosmopolitan, multi-ethnic, multinational city of Almaty is invisible from its prior duration as the first city of a grey Soviet satellite state. New wealth has brought elegance and also thrill to the place, a fact best embodied by the city’s biggest casino, Casino Viva. One of a chain, this exceptional Kazakhstan casino hotel can claim twenty-six games tables and 93 gaming machines.

What’s more, the craze for cyber poker hasn’t gone unseen in Kazakhstan casinos with the breakthrough of video poker hurriedly becoming a top choice. Outside of Almaty, the intrepid gambler is also served; e.g., the capital Astana has five casinos, the ace one among them being one of the Casino Zodiak chain that boasts not less than 20 card tables. If that is not nearly enough for persons, casinos are also to be found further afield in the cities of Aktobe, Kokshetau, Pavlodar, Shimkent, along with Ust-kamenogorsk. It is apparent, in any case, that the Kazakh adoration for the green baize and clink of chips is not stated, seeing as the vice-foreign minister not long ago visited Macao along with Hong Kong. The visit was considered to be a "short but fruitful" trip put together to study the casino industries of these towns and arouse enthusiasm in Kazakhstan’s nascent casino industry. Actually, a plausible direct air link has been established between Almaty and Hong Kong or Macao, which may elevate desire for this once beautiful location soon set to become the favorite of the elite.
