The evening session’s altercation between Robert Milkins and Joe Perry was cut short by the activists jumping on the table, causing a forty-minute wait for play to restart.

Having a pool table at home may be enjoyable for the whole family, even when it may be a dad shed or bachelor pad. This is an opportunity for families with adolescent children in particular to play a screen-free game that tests strategy, focus, and hand-eye coordination in real time.
A dining pool table was the’must-have’ home accessory in January 2023, according to Google Trends. With these hybrid designs, people may enjoy a few beers after dinner without bringing in a second table. Because they were so well-liked, we made an entire compilation of them.
With Christmas and family gatherings sparkling on the horizon, our attention has refocused on a spin-off of such tables: the folding kind.
While one wouldn’t necessarily wish to tuck into turkey and all the trimmings on one, they are perfect for keeping crowds of friends and family entertained beyond festive dance-offs, rounds of Monopoly and Christmas beer pong. Some designs offer just the table, while others have storage for accessories like snooker and pool balls, chalk and pool cues, so you have everything you need to get the next game racked up.
Many are built with storage in mind too, folding vertically so that they can easily slide between cupboards or behind doors, taking up the bare minimum of space. So while you may not have space for a pool table in the traditional sense, a folding design is a far more persuasive purchase.
If you’re considering a folding pool or snooker table, we’ve rounded up the best options to buy below
It’s easy to sharpen up your pool skills when you’ve got a table of your own at home. Pongori’s design offers play for American pool and once constructed, takes just three minutes to unfold and be ready for action.
Unlike many pool tables, the felt covering is coloured grey, allowing it to blend with interiors more and while it isn’t removable, a brush is included for cleaning while a cover is also there to protect it from dust and spills. The folding leg mechanism is easy to use and the frame includes storage to display the 15 spotted and striped balls nicely.
The whole table is set on lockable castor wheels so you can roll it into the best position with plenty of clearance space to use your 122cm-long cues, which are also included. In all, a well-designed pool table for kids and adults to use alike.
