Carom billiards sometimes called carambole billiards or simply carambole (and in some cases used as a synonym for the game of straight rail from which many carom games derive) is the overarching title of a family of billiards games generally played on cloth-covered 1.5-by-3.0-metre (5 by 10 ft) pocketless tables which often feature heated slate beds.
