Talk:Billiard room

Disagree That This Article Has Neutral Point Of View
Yes, manufacturers seem to quote small room sizes. Yes, the calculations shown in this article "prove" that the manufacturers are underscoping the room sizes.

However.

A couple of points:

1) Claiming that manufacturers are doing so for nefarious reasons (speculated in the article), not backed up by evidence, is hardly neutral, and:

2) We have for many years happily played with normal-size cues on a regulation 4.5 x 9 Gandy tournament-grade table in our house, in a room that is only 14.5' wide. According to the article, that should be impossible, because, the article claims, it requires a room two feet wider. This is hardly a minor discrepancy.

We are not in any way affiliated with pool table manufacturers, distributors, retailers, installers, etc. We work in the software industry. We like to play pool, and have a table in our house. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.14.154.3 (talk) 03:27, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
