The farther that a ball has to travel, the more accurate the shot has must be to be successful. A ball that is within inches of a pocket is difficult to miss on any table. On a 7 foot table, the long shots may have to travel 78 inches. On a 9 foot table, this moves up to 99 inches. A slightly bad long shot that still makes it in the pocket on a 7 foot table will miss the pocket by a lot on a 9 foot table. This is because the farther you get from the point of contact, the more accurate you have to be to make the same shot.
