High Break Billiards

Formerly Hot Shots pool hall back in the day now under different mgmt & ownership. Conveniently located in a strip mall at the corner of Garden City & Alderbridge. I played snooker here a few times & once for a tournament. This is 1 of the 2 best places in town to play snooker open to the public. Features 10 authentic Riley & excellent lighting fixtures as well as top grade snooker balls likely Tournament Champion just like neighboring Top 147 Snooker Club. The condition of the cloths are decent to avg the last time I was there. The snooker tables have Chinese made wall mounted electronic score boards just like at Top 147. The lighting fixtures above the snooker tables are the same Chinese made ones at Top 147 but with 14 bulbs instead of 11 so a bit better coverage. They reduce ball shadows very well. The table accessories are in very good shape. They even have universal fit telescopic cue extensions spread around the place. The snooker tables here are rumored to have pockets just a hair smaller than those at Top 147 but I also heard from a hard core player all 10 tables are Riley Aristocrats featuring steel block cushions not that this makes much difference at our skill level. Table surface markings are clean & sharp in white. Since I don’t have a membership here I find them to be on the more pricey end but not by a lot. I still like the place & wouldn’t mind playing more here. Nice place to play for any skill level. There are 6 Brunswick 4’x8’ tables for American pool in OK condition last time I looked. This is one of only 2 places in town where I would want to play snooker. Free parking available. I went back there recently & it seemed the cloth was pretty fast on my table. Very nice to play here since it’s pretty quiet & easy to concentrate since the music is low volume. It was a good experience & plan to go there more often.
