How do you use diamonds on pool table?

Answer 1

The diamonds were introduced to the billiards table in France. All tables that are properly constructed will have the diamonds in the same locations, whether American, French, English or others today.

The diamonds are first used to mark or divide the table for center, foot, and head.

During play, the diamonds are used using different methods to calculate bank shots. There are more than 100 diamond systems to do this.
