The Pool Window is best described as the window of opportunity during which a person is able to play pool at their optimum level in relation to how many beers they have consumed.
The main factors involved being the confidence and relaxation given to you from having a few drinks versus the over-confidence and woeful lack of judgement you get from being absolutely arseholed. The average for a normal person would be somewhere in the region of a 2 to 5 pint window, then things will start to go wrong and its time to go and work your magic elsewhere.
When considering your Pool Window it is obviously preferable to make it as large as possible to achieve maximum time on the table in a ‘winner stays on’ situation and increase any potential winnings you may be playing for.

 

A notable exception to the standard Pool Window comes in the form of Canadian Snooker pro and Top Drunks star Bill Werbeniuk, who used to down eight pints before a match and then a pint for every frame. It should be noted though that this was due to a medical condition and probably best not imitated on a regular basis.
