I’m sure someone has experience with it. Used Dawn dish soap and warm water when I noticed it, but there is at least one spot that didn’t come out all the way.

I’m overdue for a recovery, so maybe this will put me over the hump.

Practiced til my fingers bled, broseephus!

Naw, my dumbass ripped up the side of my thumb a few days ago trying to beat a race out of an aluminum wheel hub.

I had the thing wrapped up in electrical tape. It seemed to be healing nicely, so I thought I would let it air out. Must’ve drug it across the nose of the rail, but didn’t notice I was bleeding on the table until I racked the balls and there was blood all over them. Freakin dumbass attack.

We had an older player playing one night in our weekly tournament that had a bleeding bridge hand and bloodstained up 4-5 of our tables before someone brought it to my attention, and of course, he claimed he didn’t even realize it. Never could get them completely out. In 27 years here I’ve seen just about everything that could possibly happen in a family friendly pool room.

Damn, that sucks mate. Hope it comes out easily for you.
I have an American friend who just had a table installed in his home a few months ago. He lives a couple hours away from me. Second days playing on it, he cued down and had a monster nosebleed. He was so annoyed about it (rightly so)

I don't know about pool table cloth, but in general you should avoid warm or hot water on blood as it sets the stain. You should use only cold water.
 
I've pulled blood stains on carpet out with a damp cloth, then salt, let it sit a few minutes, then blot. not sure about pool table cloth, tho.
 
Probably won't work on an old blood stain, but cold water works great on a fresh stain. I assisted a friend who had a nosebleed in a Church that he was not familiar with (guided to the restroom). He was holding an old white handkerchief to stop the bleeding. While he dealt with it using tissues, I rinsed the cloth under cold water from the tap. The end result was that the area of the handkerchief that was stained was now whiter than the rest of it. I stated an analogy that it was washed in the blood, and was made whiter than snow.

I always go for the cold water on a fresh blood stain. For a pool table, maybe a shop vac would be needed to remove the water.
 
Can we include male fluids that cause impregnation?

Sometimes I watch rental tables and they come back with X rated stains?

Its hard whether to add other stains to distract it, or just keep it there as a singular stain?

That’s a crime against humanity. And I know who our primary suspect should be.
