Casino Gambling Coming to Jamaica?

For those of you planning a vacation to Jamaica, there’s an all-new reason to celebrate. The nation’s government recently decided to permit investors to open the country’s first land-based casino. This may also lead to online gambling becoming legal in the country. Break out the ganja, mon!

First up will be the Montego Bay, St. James; a new hotel and casino which will be the largest on the island. This facility will no doubt draw in tourists by the thousands, but it will also employ a large number of Jamaican residents. It is estimated that it might have as many as four-thousand rooms.

At the moment, slot machines are allowed on the island, and a number of slots lounges dot the vacation paradise. The government hopes that adding casinos will greatly boost tourism and pump much-needed funds into the economy.

Of course, you won’t have to wait for a casino to be constructed over at Bodog. A leading online casino and sports book, Bodog offers every kind of casino game that you might ever want to play.
