billiard table
Cue sport surface
A billiard table is a large rectangular table with a flat, cloth-covered surface and cushioned rails, used for playing billiards, pool, snooker, and related cue sports.
The cloth is traditionally green felt.
Pockets at the corners and sides catch balls in pool and snooker; some billiard games use pocketless tables.
