Is 38-40" enough?

I'm trying to figure out if I can put my pool and snooker tables in the same room. If I keep them close to the wall (60-61") I'll end up with 38-40" between the two tables. I put a pool chair at 38" with the cushion about the same height as a table and it seemed like I could play okay off the rail. I would have to shorten my stance a bit and maybe kind of prop my butt on the rail of the adjacent table to get a little more distance. It also seems like your back foot could go back under the table a ways. It seems like I've played in bars and such where the tables were this close, but wanted to find out if there is a rule of thumb or a minimum recommended distance. I'm not leaving much room from the walls, so I can't squeeze anymore room in the middle. What do you think, will it be okay?
