About Billiard Tables

Billiard tables: Snooker and pool essentially developed from billiards. Speaking in terms of “carom billiards,” the objective of billiards is to strike the object ball with the cue ball, hitting the rails three times, and then contacting the second ball. There is no need for pockets. Customary dimensions of a billiard table are 9.3 feet by 4.7 feet. In the U.S., tables might also measure 10 feet by five feet.

 
 
 
A billiard table’s surface is covered in 100 per cent worsted wool, which is a smooth and wrinkle-free compact fabric. It’s referred to as baize. (Pool and snooker tables use felt.) The surface area of a billiard table is roughly 112 inches by 56 inches.
