    There’s something inherently unpleasant about them playing poker on a pool table. You have both the space and the money for a pool table but you don’t have a regular table to sit at? Or you did but you’re choosing to play on the pool table? There’s no good explanation for something like this. Get a real table and stop living on the set of a manopshere YouTube channel.

      I would guess it’s an AirBnB:

      -Grey/white everything

      -extremely light on decoration and what is there doesn’t match what I would expect thoseguys would like (a framed landscape painting, metal leaf statue)

      -simultaneously clean but a mess due to beverage containers everywhere. The guys can’t have have occupied this space for more than 72 hours

      Also GET YOUR FUCKING DRINKS OFF OF THE FELT! This makes me feel like they aren’t using it as a pool table, which is a shame cause pool is way more fun than poker. And I like playing poker

      I think it’s practical in a way. The pool table surface is similar to that of a poker table. I imagine it’s also higher than a regular table which makes it easier to quickly check under your cards.
