What is Chinese 8-Ball?
Chinese 8-Ball is an incredible new cue sport that has captured the attention of players from all disciplines from all over the world. Chinese 8-Ball has been called a 'Hybrid' cue sport, as it takes elements from almost every different cue sport, combining elements from each into a single that's fast, tense and above all else challenging to play.
Chinese 8-Ball is traditional English pool rules, but played with American 2 1/4" spots and stripes and on a scaled down, 9 foot snooker table fitted with snooker pocket apertures. This makes the shots incredibly tight, making for nail biting matches.
Already a massive televised sporting event in China, Chinese 8-Ball is the most rapidly developing game in the world of cue sports, attracting hundreds of millions of live viewers in China alone, with the winners of the JOY Chinese 8-Ball Masters winning enormous cash prizes.
To find out everything about the rules specifics, equipment and the game itself, check out our blog, featuring Chinese 8-Ball champion Gareth Potts.

The Rasson Strong II Chinese 8 Ball Pool Table is available in the following finishes:
We offer a broad range of different cloths that can be fitted to your pool table, so we're confident that there will be a perfect match for your individual needs, but with so many choices it's easy to get bewildered by all the different terms and colours when looking at a glance. For a quick guide, please check out the above video for a rundown on all your available choices to learn everything you need.
When considering the colour choice of your cloth, do bear in mind that owing to the natural fibres of the wool, lighter shades of any napped cloth can occasionally have blemishes, or speckles. This does not affect play, or durability of the cloth. If you would like a more detailed description of this, click here for an explanation from leading brand, Strachan.
Further information about each cloth can be read below.
Hainsworth Smart Cloth
Hainsworth Smart cloth is hard-wearing and available in a fabulous range of 24 colours. It has a napped playing surface, giving excellent ball response and longevity. It's the slowest playing of all the cloths we offer, providing a longer wearing playing surface in a great choice of colours.
Hainsworth Match Cloth
Hainsworth Match is the tournament cloth that delivers the professional playing experience. Tightly woven from the finest yarns, Match provides spectacular speed and cue ball control with high levels of durability.
The cloth of ACBS, Match Room Snooker, SPA, BAPTO, EUKPF, the World Pool Championships, French Grand National, British Open and many other tournaments, Hainsworth Match is the tournament cloth.
Strachan 861 & Superfine Cloth:
The Strachan 861 in Powder Blue is the official and exclusive cloth used for the International Pool Association tournaments. It's non-directional worsted meaning that this ensures a smooth and consistent play in all directions. As well as being a fast cloth, the 861 is also known for its durability. It's created to last.
Strachan Superfine cloths have been treated with SpillGuard™ to protect against stains and spills, making it the perfect fit for any games room or commercial venue. This cloth is a 100% wool napped cloth that offers players professional levels of speed, consistency and control. Use by the Supreme Series, English Pool Association (EPA), World Eightball Pool Federation (WEPF), International Billiards and Snooker Federation (IBSF) and European Billiards and Snooker Association (EBSA).
The Jack Daniel's full label is applied to your choice from two types of cloth:
Hainsworth Smart cloth is used for English pool. This is the traditional standard cloth used on English pool tables and Snooker tables, which has a napped finish.
Hainsworth Elite Pro cloth can be fitted if you prefer a faster game. This type of cloth is normally used for American pool. It is not napped, so it plays much quicker.
Which Logo Will You Choose?
Jack Daniel's logo has steadily evolved over the course of time, with each design giving a different look but all with the iconic Tennessee Whiskey style in bold black and white.
- Bug Logo - The no-fuss design is the most simplistic of the three logos featuring the Jack Daniel's name and original circular "Old No.7 Brand" emblem.
- Label Logo - Go for the true Tennessee look with the iconic logo found on Jack Daniel's whiskey labels.
- Cartouche Logo - The "Old No.7" insignia is decorated with the ornate oval frame found on the label logo but with bold black surroundings showcasing the Jack Daniel's name.
