Black Crown

They are a good table with tight playing pockets.

Really? I've played on them in a few pool rooms and have found they play a little easier than others (3 places were 4.75 inch pockets and another one with 4.25). Though it may have to do with cloth, all had simonis on them.

That said, I agree that they play nicely and would buy one if I had $4000 or a place to put it.

I think a room is closing in Ontario with some 4 sale. I think it was 2200 each. I bought 7 for 3500$ 4 years ago.
you got 7 tables for 3500 $ that was a great deal.....

i have a black crown and a B-wick centurion same tables darn near...
the black crown has a better frame (thicker with a extra crossmember)
they both have raised pockets
the brass trim and corners on the b.c. are nicer looking than the chrome on the B-wick I think.
hows that rail rubber the b.c. comes with?
thanks for the info..

i strongly disagree with this, unless u use pocket reducers, the pockets are way too wide.


I played on 9 or so and some at the Canadians... I found they played very close to the diamonds at Turning stone. You had to hit the pocket down the rail or it wasn't dropping. They have 4 3/4 pocket and cut to make them play tight.

Maybe the table you played got changed. I have witnessed many say they play tight. If these tabes did have big pockets they would play really easy cause they roll nice.
