How small of a pool table is not a pool table anymore?

[jaime_lion]

So I am curious how small of a pool table would you be willing to play on before you said "this is not pool" Or anything like that. So 7 x 3.5 is ok? What about 6 x 3? Or 5 x 2.5? or 4 x 2? Where do you draw the line?

Would you play on this?

Not as bad as the 150 posters I have on ‘ignore’ for flooding new posts selling cues under under various names....or as bad as ‘what aiming system...’

At least the lad talks about the game and isn’t peddling the latest magic.

as for the question: 1.1749 meters. Not a centimetre less.

Yea, but how tall is the table?

The aiming is easy to avoid as it has it's own world.
And I rarely buy anything so I don't much look at what's one sale ar a either. Another easy fix

But I look here often for the funnies, and interesting match info
and get flooded with, what's the best pre shot routine, what's yours, what's best for you and why and whats not good for you and also why is it not good for you .
Which is the best,also don't bully me or I'll tell, which him literally admitting he knows we know who he is.

If it were facebook it can be easily ignored because it's just the one guy, here, it's not like that

If you can play on it, it's big enough. 6x12 inches for actual objects. 6 or 8 inch tablet pool might work too with optical cues etc. VP 10 plus ultra etc...

Smallest real table I’ve played on with real competition was in the Netherlands. 180x90cm table with <9cm corner pockets. That’s 6 footer with 3.5 in corners for us Americans. And yes they use full size (2.25 in) balls.

The Brits have smaller tables but they use smaller balls and have rounded pocket facings.

So I’m still waiting for my Simonis cloth to come in. I’ll let you know how it plays.

For me, the cutoff is 6 feet by 3 feet. For me, any smaller than that and it's not real pool.

I've played on a 6'x3'. Cost $12/hour.

Only rreason I did was some fool here likes to say "Any pool is better than no pool."

The jury is still out on that one.

3.5x7 is not okay with me. only 4.5x9 matters

True story my favorite joke is:

Why was 6 scared of 7?
————-
Because 7 ate 9!

When you have to use a spring loaded cue to shoot....the equipment is getting too small.

Where were you that it cost that much? I can play pool for like $5.50 an hour.

I wish I could say that and have more than 3 pool tables to play on. Might even be less now. I am not sure I have not been in the pool hall in 6 months.

Do you have allot of places to play pool at with tables that size?

a few, not as many that were in this area (memphis) 20+- years ago

leasing viable space at a reasonable rate in conjunction with ancillary income streams no longer being available has made pool rooms a low margin biz necessitating long hands on hours to scratch out a meager return
