				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There’s nothing like a good game of pool to unwind after a hard day. Saloons and billiards halls around the world have known for decades how much fun people have playing pool. It’s a great way to socialize and have some good times. More people are taking the leap to setting up a pool room at home. These kinds of game rooms can be a great place for the whole family to spend some quality time together. If you like to entertain or have parties, a billiards room will be a hit with all your guests.</p>
<p><strong><span id="more-1216"></span>Billiards Room Size</strong></p>
<p>You will want to start with the obvious when it comes to setting up a home pool room – the pool table. Pool tables take up a lot of space, and you want to ensure enough room around the perimeter of the table for people to make their shots. A regulation size pool table requires plenty of space, so be sure that you have enough room before you bring in a table. Remember that the idea for a pool room is a place to have some fun, so don’t cram too much table into too small a space. If you don’t have enough room in your basement or recreation room, you can build out, if you have the cash. Another alternative is to choose a smaller sized table. Even if it is not a regulation table, any sized pool table can be lots of fun.</p>
<p><strong>Billiards Room Style</strong></p>
<p>Think pool hall style when decorating your billiards room. If you already have a small wet-bar in the room that will go a long way toward creating the right atmosphere. Consider investing in some small neon signs to up the ante on pool room authenticity. You should also have a nice flat-screen television for players to watch when they are not shooting. Cool burgundy and deep green colours are the perfect colours for your home pool room décor.</p>
<p>If you are adding a billiards room to your house, go all out. Take the time to design and decorate the room with an authentic pub-style décor. You’ll save money by not having to go out to the clubs to play some pool. Before you know it, you may even become a pool shark that runs the table when your friends come over.</p>
