PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Early next month, gamblers who want to try their hand at poker will be able to have a seat inside Philadelphia’s first poker room.
Today, crews began unloading poker tables at the Sugarhouse Casino, near the Delaware riverfront.
Sugarhouse general manager Wendy Hamilton, game for anything, grabbed some bolt cutters, flexed her muscles, then broke the seal on the back of one tractor-trailer.
Then, poker tables were unloaded and wheeled into Sugarhouse’s interim poker room, located on the south side of the property, facing the Benjamin Franklin Bridge.
“We found a way to put this temporary structure up, just in the meantime,” Hamilton says. “This will house 24 poker tables, so that’s 240 playing positions,” she says.
The temporary facility will be in place only until their permanent poker room opens, part of a $164-million expansion that includes new event space, restaurants, and a parking garage.
“It’ll be a very nice, elegant room, once we get into that permanent space,” Hamilton tells KYW Newsradio.
