Has anybody gone gambling from Thailand? ?

Question

I have heard that people go to Cambodia to gamble. Is that true where else? What kind of games and are they clean like Vegas? or more like the deerhunter? My wife an I went to Laos and everywhere they were trying to sell us playing cards. I guess there illegal or discouraged in Thailand?

And I know about c**k fighting and betting on boxing

Answer 1

Gambling is illegal here in Thailand.

the locals will bet on c**k fights (horrid and cruel, btw) and Thai boxing and such, but it is very illegal.

If you don't speak Thai, don't count on being able to gamble at at all (or if you try, you will probably just get ripped off).

Playing cards are also illegal here---you cannot buy them in Thailand.
