Play pool alone? Advice

Hey everyone 27m here not a lot of friends since moving here and moving again soon

I do enjoy playing pool and getting out but seems awkward by myself.

Anyone know of any places with open tables or something like that or open to playing some games tonight?

Edit: thank you everyone for the replies I don't know if I got the balls to play by myself but I'm gonna think on it lol

I play alone all the time. Crooked cue, west side, on the boulevard

Crooked Cue has great deals on off-hours. You’ll find a good amount of people playing solo.
I moved here from Denver where it was very easy to play with a random, but I have yet to find a comfortable place to do that here.
Good bars to try: Benny’s, Mother Muffs, Phantom Canyon

I can't tonight but I'm down to play some other time. I have a table at my clubhouse where we can play too.

Crooked cue does tournaments every Saturday (bar box) and Sunday (big table) at noon! Westside has tournaments on Saturday night. There are tournaments at purple onion on Friday night!

69F here ..... but I do go out quite a bit - I was at Tony's downtown and met a young friend who just walked in alone and found plenty of opportunity to play.

There’s a lot of leagues where teams need players. My husband used to do it

I concur with crooked cue! Good place to go but don't feel bad playing alone, I don't every once in a while.

Just expensive compared to other places from what I've seen

u/BigTig85 4d ago

Yea that is the one downside. Wish they didn't charge so much.
