    again speaking to the committee chap, the three tables take between £2200 and £2800 a month
    I think that is not bad for a social club that is "not" a snooker club
    maybe while the wc is on, but very hard to believe. may i ask, where is this hopeful little place?

            • There's none left to close down Dean . Not a club near me for about 20 miles plus , apart from my mates and another just down the road , but no atmosphere at that one. If that shut , that would probably be me finished with snooker . Loads of social clubs but most only have 2 tables and I can't stand playing one frame then waiting 3 frames to play another .
              Still trying to pot as many balls as i can !

                            WHAT ,,! ! I would have to pack in snooker at those prices, where about are you that's charging those prices? How many are going in at peak times.

                            • I play in Hong Kong. It still gets packed. The money I spend playing the game I could buy a new cue every month. I often go in the mornings when it is off peak. Ten tables in total. Tables close together. Not great.

                              • Can't complain about my club. Non profit place that's been going about 60 years or more, 3 tables (2 antique match tables), 50p per frame per person upto a max of £2.

                                I've played for 8 hours before, only paid £2. Even got my own key .
