Not to sound like a smartass, but poker cloth works well on a poker table. I personally am a fan of the Teflon-backed suited speed cloth. It's smooth, so the cards slide well and it's nice looking as well. If you're interested I can check on pricing for you. Just PM me your location, the dimensions of the table, and what color you would like. It comes in about 15 different colors. I can also get non-suited speed cloth.
I like it on pool tables, but definitely stay away from Mali on a poker table. We used it for a while and had problems with the dye getting on sweaty hands. I haven't used other pool cloth on poker tables to know if others have the same problem, but it happened with a couple different colors, so I don't think it was just a fluke.
