Abstract A billiard table for playing a ''''crazy pool'''' game, the table including a transparent flat glass playing surface with a paper sheet there-below on which is imprinted a set of radiating lines that radiates from each pocket so to aid in directing a shooting of a ball toward the specific pocket, a series of permanent magnets hidden below the imprinted paper sheet so to divert the intended course of the ball, each of the balls being made of rubber with an iron core for responding to the magnet attraction, the iron core being possibly off center to increase the probability of an eccentric course of travel, and the pool table having a formed steel cushion or any other non-resilent material such as wood, molded plastic or molded hard rubber, instead of a conventional rubber cushion around its edge for being hit by the balls.
In a new type of pool table, the combination of a table having a playing surface of transparent flat glass forming a playing field, and a plurality of billiard balls upon said playing field, ball pockets conventionally positioned around said playing field, a paper sheet being placed below said glass, said sheet having a diagram visible thereupon including means for directing a ball shot toward any of said pockets, said directing means comprising sets of radial lines extending from each said pocket, a base panel below said paper sheet including pockets within a central portion thereof in which magnets are placed, said balls being of rubber and having an iron core, said core in certain of said balls being off center, and a bumper cushion around said playing field being formed of a non-resilient material.
