Question

How much room is needed for a billiard table?

Answer 1

Well, take the size of the table, add however much room one needs to work the cue and then add a foot to be on the safe side.

Answer 2

It depends on the size of the table. You add tan feet to the dimensions of the table to get your minimum room size. For example if your table is 4' x 8' then your minumum room size would be 14' x 18'. This gives you five feet of room all the way around the table which is enough to shoot any shot with a standard size 58'' pool cue. Of course a bigger room will be more comfortable but this is the minimum. Good luck to ya!
