I'm heading to Vancouver in a few weeks, and my buddy there just found a place by his house with 5 billiards tables. I've always wanted to try it, but I've lost my old bca book (1993-ish?) with the rules.

I tried downloading the new bca book, but billiards seems to have been discontinued. Anyone have any links to billiards resources for me?

Also, where in Vancouver do they have a room with 5 billiards tables?

He said there's a 6x12 snooker, a few 4x8 and 4.5x9 pool, and these:

Looks like a dump from the outside, but inside is much better. All of the signage is in Chinese.
