Julián walks away, skirting the tables amidst the sound of clacking balls. The light tends to be flat, giving the place a special atmosphere - private - almost intimate where the only grip on reality is the sound of the music and the laughter of a group of men and women mingling in a corner. Don't hesitate to apply it regularly: it tends to wear off fast. I turn and a slender, dark-faced man offers me his business card. To be two yards beyond is far better than to be two yards short, for in the first place you give the ball a chance of holing, and in the second place it relieves the eye somewhat to turn round and putt along a different line. To begin their attack, the Lannisters must first topple all field kubbs. The surprise on my face must show. He smiles and asks me if I am interested in learning to how play. That man has a good deal of learning stored up, and the girl is likely to get it all. It is evident that they are here to have some fun: to get away from the routine of the city and to relax after a week of work while they stand over a wooden table, trade stories, remember former days and listen to songs of salsa, carrilera and vallenato.

"The good thing about the ‘Club de Billares Londres’ is that people come here from all over the city from every social class, rich or poor, to drink or to play, and no one gives you a dirty look, the kind that asks you what you are doing here. This kind of narrows your options down, so if you're having trouble running the game with your GPU there's a plain and functional toon shaded codepath that you can try but you'll miss out on the fancy shading. Also, having tags that mean the same thing (ie, pocket-billiards, pool, pool-billiards, etc.) is redundant, and usually eligible for tag synonymization. Also, he seemed, on the whole, to be less inimical than the others. It has to do with the reputation of the game in the country where some seem to associate it with a subculture of booze, women and song. I spend about half an hour playing with them and then my attention is caught by the sight of a table on the other side of the room where two women are just beginning their game. His eyes glance around the room and stop at a table which is being cleaned. I glance at it, and read ‘Julián Torres.

It evokes an image, the wood of an old house which has witnessed the passing of history. At that moment Phil Stark came out of the hotel, and passing them, stepped off the piazza into the street. As I wander through the "T zone" - which takes its name from a certain intersection - and come out at the Calle 85 with Carrera 15, I see a glowing neon light on one side of the street, and it strikes my attention. I realize, as I look around at the glowing worn velvet and the hanging lamps, what is billiards that I am home. I sit down to rest and take one last good look around. They look at each other, laugh and invite me to join them in their game. The question is, should the asker specify the table in which the game is played in addition to the name of the game? In terms of specifying a table, the tag you add to the question should already (implicitly) address what table you are playing on. I personally think it's not necessary to specify you're playing i.e. eight-ball on a pool table, but it can't hurt to add one more tag.

Now, if APA is most common for eight-ball and BCA is most common for nine-ball or something, then the specificity is critical to answer your question. From above, "How is eight-ball played?" is the only question that (clearly) merits the specification of game being played, for self-explanatory reasons. The door was open and I could see into the room. Former double world champion Ronnie Alcano, lead player of Bugsy Promotions, and battle-scarred Warren Kiamco made the Final Four against former world champions Mika Immonen of Finland and Johnny Archer of the United States, respectively, in the star-studded 33rd US Open 9-Ball Championship in Chesapeake, Virginia. In championship rules, the pitch measures 8 meters (26.2 feet) long by 5 meters (16.4 feet) wide. Usually, yes. At a higher level, pro rules can be different from amateur rules, etc. Unless this is specified, then we, the community, can only assume. The rules, as officially codified in the Billiard Congress of America's rule book, were periodically revised in the years following. If the pool table is meant to be a decorative addition to your home that you only play the occasional game on, it won’t matter too much what color the cloth is, as long as it agrees with your aesthetic taste and goes nicely with the room and the colors of the table.
