But the venues could be doing more to facilitate the growth of the game... Even as inflation makes breathing an expensive hobby.Absolutely! Especially when they're buying their own tables.
As for what they can expect at their local venues, they will have to settle for what they have.
A pool hall with a mix of both is ideal.
Bars are going to cater to the bangers, serious pool players are a bad investment for them.
Hopefully, the dynamic of these venues changes (especially in the US - being on this forum is interesting to me, as it is constantly shaping my opinion of what I thought was pool Mecca). I thing the venues that cater to American tables here in China are doing a good job, but then the other games snooker, and Chinese-8 are popular and are already tough, tight pocketed games.
Bars can cater to bangers, but halls can cater to those enthusiastic about the game, or gearing themselves to capture new audiences to the game.
