Betting Line (oval on poker table) Dimensions? (1 Viewer)

[CRAW]

What's the average dimensions of the oval/betting line on a standard table made from 8' plywood? I'd like to fashion one on to my speed cloth table. TYIA

Thoughts?

7" away from the inside of the rail is my default sizing. 1/4" thick.

Mine was set 6 inches from the rail and I think it's just right. YMMV, but I wouldn't set it greater than 8 inches from the edge of the rail.

Take your chips and measure out to 6 chip widths wide. Then you can do 5 stacks deep without crossing the line for deep stack tourneys.

I used to do 6" as standard, then I realized 7" give more space for MOAR CHIPS.

It also still provides a big enough playing surface area for the board, muck and pot, usually.

7" w/ 1/4" thick. many casinos have the far edges over 12" so that the dealers have an easier time reaching bets.

For a 42" table surface, a betting line 6" from the rail leaves ~30" of play area. For a 44" surface, a betting line 7" from the rail also leaves ~30" of play area.

6" allows four rows of stacks between the rail and line. If wanting 5 rows deep, you'll need it at 7.5" from the rail.

A triangle of stacks five wide is 7.5" across at the base, and 7" deep.
