Billiards pool or pool billiards, whatever you're calling it, this home table is rather loopy in my opinion.

A Penultimate Billiards Pool Table? - Are You Sure?

Ladies and gentlemen, this table is round. Round, I say!

Besides making lengthy bank shots elliptical and not trapezoidal in shape, the manufacturer further offers the opportunity for a stripper's pole to be placed in the center of the table.

Need I say more? Some would find the table dancer distracting, I would find her (or him, perish the thought) offensive. And I cannot have feet interfering with my shots!

In the table's defense, however, there are 7-inch straight rails set cleverly between each of the pockets, allowing for some traditional and even around-the-table bank shots to be attempted.
