Question

Is a 24'length by 14'width room enough for a 9' pool table which has a playfield of 50" by 100".

Answer 1

Well there is no such thing as to much room but you should be OK with that size room just go easy on furniture not much to spare

Answer 2

Not really. A cue stick is 60 inches so from the rail to the wall is just enough to fit  the cue with no stroke. If your cue is 57-58 inches thats close enough probably. Need at least a 3 inch stroke.

Answer 3

Absolutely. Check the room chart in the link below.

Answer 4

I have a 4-1/2 x 9 foot pool table, so the bare minimum of space in the room it's going in is 14 feet by 20 feet.  When I first bought the pool table it went in a 14 x 20 and fit just fine.  You are correct in measuring the playing surface when calculating the room size.  My table has a playing surface of 50" x 100-5/8".  50" + 58" + 58" = 166" or 13' 10".  100-5/8" + 58" + 58"= 216-5/8" or 18'-5/8".  You need the extra space the long part of the table for breaking.  If you haven't purchased the table yet I would say to go with the 4-1/2' x 9' table.  I will probably never buy a smaller table even though I shoot a lot on bar-sized tables.  What I like to do is practice on my larger table, because it's much more challenging, then I go and shoot the lights out on a bar table.
