Where to put center black dot on a pool table?

Answer 1

On the end that you rack on go up two diamonds then center it with the center diamond on the bottom rail.

Answer 2

The only spot that you really need to mark on an American pool table is the foot spot.  The reasoning for this is because the foot spot is used in spotting balls in games like straight pool and, of course, for placing the head ball when racking.  The center spot is used occasionally, but very rarely.  You should be able to eyeball the center spot and place a ball there if you need to.  Happy Shooting.  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

I used some tape to hold the strings in place. Where the strings cross each other is the place where the spot goes . It worked very well.

Answer 4

In the middle of the table if you look at it the long way, at the second dot up. so
