The 2014 World Billiards Championship officially kicked off on Oct. 17 in Leeds, U.K. As players around the world chalk their cues in anticipation, we searched through listings of homes for sale to find the ultimate places to play. While most of these rooms feature American-style pool tables, they’d be fit for any type of cue sports that you fancy.
