If a crap pool table paid enough to be used in tournaments, they would be in any tournament they wanted. Getting a table in a tournament is just advertising, not indicative of quality. Don’t get suckered in because you saw such and such table at a tournament. Aramith makes great balls but the damn balls seen on TV make it almost impossible to tell which ball is which. Ugly weird color balls are suppose to help the home viewers. I have an 85” UHD TV and prefer the old colors that are much easier to distinguish which ball is which. I’ve seen Predator balls on my TV and their colors are just fine. I suckered into buying new Aramith Blak and sold them after one day of play.
