The chip and cup holders are pushed up and out from the bottom. I bought this from an estate sale about 13 years ago. It was custom made for them, I believe 10 years before I purchased it. Very solid. it has eight spots for players. And eight chairs four of which have been reupholstered. The other four can really use an update. And some small retouching of the finish is needed. This is a serious man cave table. Matching lazy Susan .
