I have only been in PP for one month and already tired of being hustled in pool by local girls (damn some of them are good). That leaves me with too options:
Option 1 : stop going to these bars
Option 2 : buy a pool table (and practise)
Option 2 sounds a lot more fun than option 1 which leads me to my question. Where can I buy a pool table and what price ranges do they come in?

Near Wat Phnom, Around st 102-104 is is where they make them. Cost around $350 from memory.
Or just go to the upstairs bar at the walkabout or even to a khmer pool hall and practice on your own.
Playing with people is the best way to pracitce...Also try sharkies around opening at 4.30pm.
good luck,
LaudJohn

$300 is way too much... You can buy a brand new custom built pool table for about $150-200.
Can't remember any of the places that make them... but
... if you go into Howies Bar, and ask him for some advice on how and where to buy one.. he has a few phone numbers of people, and can point you in the right direction... he'll help you out!
Be careful about buying one and putting in your house. I had some friends living here a while ago who had one in their house and they had guns pointed at them, and grenades threatened to be thrown, as well as a few visits from the local police because the local neighbours didnt like the noise of the balls hitting each other late at night, and thought that the boys were running a business (mainly cos of the pool table which was always surrounded by taxi girls on a balcony in full view of all the neighbours)
Being a bar fly might be cheaper...and more fun...
Goodluck ...ENJOY!!!

DV8 has a pool table on the first floor, also the happy hours start at noon now so thats another option. The table cost about $240.

Agreed. I can think of only 5 gys who I would call good. Not REALLY good. And only one of those would ever win more than 1 games out of 5 against me.dreamer#1 wrote:The girls aren't that good.
(Huge generalisation coming up)
They generally have one speed, and hit everything hard.
Luck is not good.
You may have to face the fact that you are shit, and just need to get better.
(That being said, they ARE better than any women in the west)
