type of tables

[dennis barker]

what is the difference in a billiard table/snooker table if any?
i play on a very old table with incredibly tight pockets i am told this is because its a billiard table,i think its got irritable jaw syndrome or duff cushes, size looks right and absolute accuracy is the answer i know,any ideas as to problem? db.

Get a fitter round and ask him to make'em like Jordan's growler!


I think the way the slate drop's intot he hole has alot to do with the tightness of a table too. Plus the way the corners are cut. All very complicated!

that would explain a shot along the cash hitting the far side ofthe pocket seeming to come straight back across what should be a deeper arc cut in the slate and staying out , cush shots with a lot of side do tend to drop easier ,as they should.
the more i think about it that makes sense,fitter would have to get a plane i´m playing in spain, any takers?
