An Overview of Common Green Poker Felt

For those that have their own home poker table, it may have come with a common Green Poker Felt. In fact, whether it was a pool table, game table or poker table, green is the felt most commonly found. Green is a soothing color and it has been used traditionally on Vegas casino poker tables. Now, it is not unusual to find this material in every color in the rainbow and in many different types of material.

When it comes to common Green Poker Felt, it is the least expensive, but it has some disadvantages. If it is a wool felt, it can ball up and shed lint, which makes the cards stick to the felt more and can cause this material to look old in a quick amount of time. If it is a wool blend, it is more durable and many that are sold today and a blend for that reason.

The main problem is that some people may go to the fabric store and not realize that the green felt sold in fabric shops is not necessarily the same that you will find, when looking for common Green Poker Felt. For those that play a lot of poker, this can make a difference in how they click their chips and how the cards move across the felt. In fact, they actually make speed poker felt, which is slicker and makes the cards and chips glide across the table.

Many like suited poker felt over the common green poker felt. This material is typically water-proofed on the back side and is usually a polyester and olefin blend. It is durable, slick and some of the most excellent material. Many that have played on the traditional but common green poker felt find that the game seems more exciting with a sleeker material or one that has the colors to match their dacor, poker chips or favorite color.

No matter what material you like the best, they are very affordable. You can buy pre-cut sizes, but most people prefer to buy this material by the linear yard, which is typically 55"? to 59" wide. Since you can get Common Green Felt for under $10 per linear yard on the Internet, many choose it as a cheap option.

The only thing is that you can get some of the better, suited poker felt for less than $15 per linear yard, and you should need more than 3 linear yards in almost every case. This is a small price difference when you think of it in those terms. Don't think that the green felt most commonly used is not acceptable - it is just that it can look old quickly and it is not as durable or long lasting. Some of the newer materials are tough and stain resistant, which adds life to this material.

When it is time to refinish your home poker table, consider some of the upgraded choices in poker felts, rather than Common Green Poker Felt. Some of the websites offer the upgraded options for less than retail prices and it is a small price to pay for a much smoother playing surface.
