But the style of windows of the above building--one pane of glass--doesn't match any of those viewed out the two windows in the supposed corner room of the supposed Lanesborough Royal Suite room used for a pool room. By a corner table two friends are talking, recounting anecdotes of their youth. It is one of those Kubrick rooms that is impossible, and Kubrick even presents the impossible room as being in two different locations in the apartment. Until the revealing of Victor's pool room, the Nathanson household had stood out as being curiously unconnected to other locations in the film. I personally think it's not necessary to specify you're playing i.e. eight-ball on a pool table, but it can't hurt to add one more tag. As I wander through the "T zone" - which takes its name from a certain intersection - and come out at the Calle 85 with Carrera 15, I see a glowing neon light on one side of the street, and it strikes my attention.

The roof of the club conserves traces of the Republican, early 19th century-style house that once was inhabited by some Spaniard or Creole, and which has come back to life thanks to the legendary game of billiards. They ask me if the photos will come out in magazines such as People or Semana. Naturally, most people also want a pool table felt color that goes well with the table and the room it will be in. Some colors tend to show dirt more quickly than others - ironically, black is one felt color that starts to look dirty very fast. The color of a pool table’s felt matters for several reasons. Some of the more popular ones are carom, snooker, and British style pool. World Snooker. 11 January 2020. Archived from the original on 21 February 2020. Retrieved 11 February 2021. Triple Crown events remain the most prestigious and historic in snooker, and they are the titles the players covet most.

I continue to wander through the place hearing about anecdotes and stories from the players. If, after a foul, the next player cannot cleanly strike both sides of the object ball, the referee may call a free ball, allowing the player to nominate any other ball in place of the object ball they might normally have played. I explain to them that I am only here to do a modest photo story about this unique place. It is evident that they are here to have some fun: to get away from the routine of the city and to relax after a week of work while they stand over a wooden table, trade stories, remember former days and listen to songs of salsa, carrilera and vallenato. I speak to the manager and he tells me that he doesn’t quite know when billiards first began in Bogotá, but that for more than forty years, ever since the club first opened, the sport has been played here every day. We begin to talk and he tells me about the difficult life of being a professional billiards player in Colombia. I inquire about the hourly rate and she tells me that the tables are full at the moment and that I’ll have to wait until someone finishes.

Regardless of when and by what route it reached the British Isles and the British colonies in its recognizable form, croquet is, like pall-mall and trucco, among the later forms of ground billiards, which as a class have been popular in Western Europe back to at least the Late Middle Ages, with roots in classical antiquity, including sometimes the use of arches and pegs along with balls and mallets or other striking sticks (some more akin to modern field hockey sticks). After the balls are scattered with a break shot, a player is assigned either the group of solid or striped balls once they have legally pocketed a ball from that group. The object balls include seven solid-colored balls numbered 1 through 7, seven striped balls numbered 9 through 15, what is billiards and the black 8 ball. Or I’ll get under the ball by accident and send it flying across the bar, where it’ll softly roll up against the boot of some pony-tailed, tattooed biker dude, who will then shoot me a cold, piercing stare and begin punching his fist into his palm.
