Oh, wow.
Sounds like the new room in VA and I am REALLY hoping the beautiful game makes a comeback.
The current Hollywood tables are absolutely glorious.

Mostly 8/9s I'd bet
Wish I lived NEAR a place like that

So jealous. I have to drive an hour to see a pool room.
Photos do good job of showing place, hate those open industrial ceilings, as if the place is busy with people, the sound is just AWEFUL.

A word of advice - get a webpage. Facebook is no substitute for a webpage.

We are working on it!
I used to live in Denver and would have loved to patronize your new place. But I moved to Arizona and, alas, there isn't a place with 3C tables within an hour from me.
Vinh Son has been there a while but I never went there. At the time I was in Denver both Colfax Billiards and FFC at 38th and Sheridan had tables. A room in Aurora did too. Later colfax was Billiard Institute and they had new Soren sogaards. Then Shakespeare’s came along with good tables. Don’t live there or get back much. Played at Hank’s shortly before they closed. I think the table was from Shakespeare’s but was in terrible shape.
Two observations. Not great neighborhoods and from the pictures No where comfortable to sit. I will go visit them some time soon and see what I think after that.
I wish Jerry had insulated and added a good heating cooling system to Shakespeare's. It would probably still be there today. I loved to go when the outside temp was around 70 or so. It was as cold could be in the winter as hot as hell in the summer. typical of a warehouse type structure. I still have one of the Sebastien cues Jerry had made for Shakespeare's' by a french cue maker. Nice old four pointer with a great local history. I loved there french onion soup! Such a classy place.

benches all along the outer walls and picnic tables in the center, if you need more than that dont play pool lol
In the context of a tournament, seating is a concern.
Also, many of the pics posted appear to be prior to opening and may not accurately despite the operational layout.
Every pool room is crowded for space
That isn't directly related to this exchange though.
