The earliest form of pool moved indoors with King Louis XI of France, who is the first known owner of an indoor pool table. The game became wildly popular in the 15<sup>th<\/sup> century, first with long, heavy tables that stood 12 feet or longer. Over time, these tables got shorter. You might still see a 10 foot table here or there, but these are usually antique or custom pool tables. Today, most pool tables for sale range between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/6-foot-pool-table\/\">6 feet<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/9-foot-pool-table\/\">9 feet<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Modern Pool Tables<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The regulation or \u201cstandard\u201d size pool table today is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/8-foot-pool-table\/\">8 feet<\/a> in length.

Small pool tables were developed for a hungry consumer market that desperately wanted to play pool at their favorite bars and in the comfort of their own home. Compact pool tables generally run at 7 feet in length, but that single foot makes ALL the difference for the pool table owner.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/8-thomas-pool-table.html\" class=\"broken_link\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/8-foot-plank-and-hide-thomas-pool-table-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2065\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/8-foot-plank-and-hide-thomas-pool-table-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/8-foot-plank-and-hide-thomas-pool-table-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/8-foot-plank-and-hide-thomas-pool-table-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/8-foot-plank-and-hide-thomas-pool-table-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/8-foot-plank-and-hide-thomas-pool-table.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gametablesonline.com\/8-thomas-pool-table.html\" class=\"broken_link\">8&#8242; Regulation Size Plank &amp; Hide Co.
