Whats the largest pool room in the world if anyone knows and how many tables?

My and my uncle... well trying to convince my uncle to build me a pool hall with over 40 tables including
5 french pool,
5 bar pocket tables,
20-8.5ft pocket tables
30-9ft pocket tables
3-10x5 snooker tables.

This is a big building 2 floors meaning you walk up 5 steps to the second floor to get to the 9ft tables including 1 snooker and 1 french pool on the second floor for final round. Pool room time will be a decent price. "Play by hour not by per person." Hopefully being able to get sponsored and get pros in and get a tournament going.

We estimated it out to be close to $1.2 million located in Houston, TX. I was thinking $800K. My uncles telling me "elbow room" and drinks. "elbow room" space for each table. Also estimated for time period how long he will get his money back... 4.5 years.
He's a professional architecture. I was going to say make it look like a warehouse... he popped me in the back of my head and said no.

I recall a post from Shooters, they had not heard of a room with more tables in the U.S, and were asking if anyone else had heard of one.

I'm surprised to learn they say 22,000 square feet. I would've guessed more, like 30+

BTW, their website says 65 tables.

BTW Mark, I'm still using that pressed elkmaster!

Lion's Den?

I remember a place in Las Vegas. I thought it was called Lion's Den or something like that. Supposed to have 120 tables. Maybe it was just a myth. :confused: But I also heard they went under. Anyone from Las Vegas come here? Tell us about it!

I have bad knees. How tall is each step? 5 steps up to the second floor sounds like they are high. Have the good tables that i want to play on down on the first floor please.

I'm from Vegas and I think currently the Largest pool hall we have here is The Cue Club Which compared to what a few of you said, it really isn't that big (15,000 sqft, 39 tables). And I've read about the Lion's Den but sadly I do believe its been gone for a while :( It was one of the largest in the world or something.

We had a Pinkies in Omaha, Nebraska. It WAS 36,000 sq/ft and had 101 tables (8-9' tables with green felt and 93 barbox's with bright pink felt). Not what I would call a pool hall.
