As of this weekend, Philadelphians now have one more poker room to play at.

According to bizjournals.com, SugarHouse Casino’s interim poker room opened to the public Saturday. It features 24 poker tables and all have built-in phone charging stations.

The reason why it’s considered interim is because, according to the report, a permanent, 28-table room opens next year. It will come with a price tag of $2.9 million and is part of other property renovations.

SugarHouse Casino is the only casino within city limits, though those in the city have easy access to three other poker rooms, according to PokerAtlas. Another casino is on its way in Philadelphia, though state regulators have been slow to pick a license.
