What are the differences between 7, 8 and 9 pool tables?
According to the Billiard Congress of America (BCA) specifications, a regulation size table is one where the playing area width is one-half the length, measured cushion to opposite cushion. The 8′ table is the most popular. The 7′ table is nice where an 8′ table will not fit, however there is less challenging play. The 9′ table provides more challenge and is thus more fun to play on, however it requires a larger room.
