Red Haired Girl At The Billiard Table

Finally, snooker tables may use an L-shaped profile, such as the L77 profile . This is mostly because snooker uses balls of a smaller diameter and smaller pocket entrances than pool does.
Cloth
Billiard cloth (sometimes erroneously called felt) is a specific type of cloth that covers the top of the table's "playing area". Both the rails and slate beds are covered with 21–24 ounce billiard cloth (although some less expensive 19oz cloths are available) which is most often green in color (representing the grass of the original lawn games that billiards evolved from), and consists of either a woven wool or wool/nylon blend called baize.
