What can you customize on a poker table?
For a poker table, you can customize the size, felt, rail, base, dealer’s station, and the accessories needed for the game.
The scope of configuration depends primarily on where the table is placed, how often it is used, and whether the structure will be moved regularly.
Size and Upholstery
Choose one of the standard sizes or order a table custom-made for a specific space. You can also choose the type, color scheme, and design of the upholstery.
Rail
Choose from standard, tall, stitched, LED-illuminated, and VIP rail options.
Legs and Base
The table can be equipped with removable legs, a foldable metal frame, a particleboard base, or one of the available models of wooden legs.
Features
The table can be equipped with cup holders, a chip tray, a drop box, USB ports, LEDs, branding, a carrying case, or RFID solutions.
Which poker table should you choose?
When choosing a poker table, consider first and foremost the number of players, the available space, how often it will be used, and how it will be transported.
A club where the table is in use for many hours requires a different design than a private customer who uses it a few times a month.
When transporting the table frequently, it is especially important that it can be quickly disassembled, that it has a foldable base, and that it is secured during transport.
- table top dimensions – choose them based on the number of players and the space around the table,
- base construction — choose a stationary, detachable, or foldable design,
- rail and felt — consider the intensity of use, the character of the interior, and the desired finish,
- equipment — plan for the items needed by the players, the dealer, and for transport or broadcasts.
What size poker table should you choose?
Choose the size of your poker table based on the number of players, the available space, and whether the table will be set up permanently or moved around regularly.
The smaller tabletop makes it easier to set up the table in a private game room and takes up less space during transport. The larger one provides more space for cards, chips, player equipment, and the dealer’s station.
| Size | Best Use |
|---|---|
| 200 × 100 cm | Compact table for smaller spaces and private game rooms |
| 230 × 100 cm | A versatile size suitable for 8–9 players, among other uses |
| 240 × 115 cm | More space for chips, cards, and player accessories |
| 250 × 130 cm | Tournaments, larger rooms, and tables with a wider range of accessories |
| 270 × 150 cm | A large table providing more space for players and the dealer |
Custom-sized poker table
If the standard dimensions do not fit the available space, we can custom-build a table to your specifications. In that case, we determine the width and length of the tabletop based on the room, the number of players, the dealer’s station, and the planned equipment.
What kind of tablecloth should you choose for a poker table?
Choose your fabric based on your desired level of customization—from a ready-made design to graphics created from scratch.
Standard Fabric
Standard fabric uses a ready-made design available in our selection. This is the simplest option if you don’t need custom graphics or branding.
Customized Tablecloth
A customized tablecloth is created based on one of the available designs. We can change the color scheme and add a logo, club name, company name, event name, or other simple graphic elements.
Custom-designed tablecloth
We design custom-designed tablecloths from scratch together with a graphic designer for a specific table, brand, club, tournament, event, or interior.
This option includes additional design work, consultations, and preparation of the print-ready file, so it is billed separately.
Which poker table leg should you choose?
For most home, club, and event tables, a standard rounded rail is sufficient, while taller designs provide a larger support surface and more finishing options.
The rail protects the edge of the tabletop and provides players with a place to rest their forearms while playing.
Depending on the configuration, it can be made of synthetic or genuine leather and feature stitching, a custom color, a print, or LED backlighting.
| Band Type | Application |
|---|---|
| Standard Rounded | Private, Club, and Tournament Play |
| High-Sewn | Larger support surface and a more decorative finish |
| LED rail | Events, clubs, and venues where the table needs to be more prominently displayed |
| High LED rail | Tournaments and tables requiring a larger rail surface area |
| High double-sided rail with LED lighting | Tables with lighting visible on both sides of the structure |
| VIP rail | Tall structure with dual LED lighting and the option for custom printing |
We can also adjust the width of the side rail to fit the table’s dimensions and the amount of space needed on the playing surface. A wider side rail provides more room for your forearms, while a narrower one leaves more workspace on the tabletop.
LED Lighting and Branding for a Poker Table
LED lighting can be installed on the inside of the board, on the outside, or on both sides. We can combine it with a print, the club’s name, a sponsor’s logo, or the name of a specific event.
Which poker table base should you choose?
If you plan to move the table frequently, it’s best to choose a base that can be unscrewed or folded; if the table is to be permanently installed, you can use a heavier wooden or panel construction.
The mobile base makes it easier to move the table, reduces the space needed for storage, and allows the tabletop to be transported separately.
- tabletop only, without legs – for use with your own base or cabinetry,
- detachable legs – practical for transport and storage,
- small foldable metal frame – a solution for frequent transport,
- large foldable metal frame – larger support surface while still being foldable,
- base made of particleboard – stationary design with a choice of finishes,
- folding wooden legs—foldable while offering a more elegant appearance,
- wooden poker legs—a classic design used in poker tables,
- turned wooden legs with a frame – a solution for permanently installed tables.
Will the table be transported regularly?
If you plan to transport the table regularly, choose detachable legs or a folding metal frame, which will make it easier to disassemble the table into separate parts.
We can also make a custom-fit cover for your table to protect it during transport and storage.
Poker Table Materials and Finish
By default, the table skirt can be made of black faux leather, but other colors and textures are also available.
The color of the table skirt can be matched to the tablecloth, the interior, the brand identity, or the nature of the event.
For more prestigious projects, we can use genuine leather and natural wood elements.
The availability of specific materials depends on the table’s construction, the type of table skirt, and the selected finish.
An Ergonomic Space for the Dealer
We can take the dealer’s position into account when determining the table’s dimensions and layout.
The indentation, lowered side panel, and strategically placed components reduce the need to lean over and make it easier to access cards and chips.
Dealer Indent
Moves the dealer’s position closer to the center of the playing field.
Lowered rail
Increases freedom of movement and facilitates access to the table surface.
Customizable width
The width of the station can be adjusted based on the dealer’s working style and the amount of equipment needed.
Space for accessories
The station can include a tray, slots, a drop box, and other items needed to run the game.
Poker Table Accessories and Equipment
It’s a good idea to choose the table accessories based on the style of play, the players’ needs, and the dealer’s position. The number and placement of each item are determined during setup.
Cup holders
Cup holders can be mounted in the side panel, directly in the tabletop, or on external brackets.
Chip tray
Plastic and wooden trays are available in several sizes, depending on the needs of the dealer station.
Drop box and rake box
The chip slots and boxes can be located on the left or right side of the dealer’s station.
USB Ports
The number and placement of USB charging ports are determined during table configuration.
Poker Table with RFID Technology
We can integrate RFID technology into a poker table designed for professional broadcasts. The system allows for the identification of cards during play and the transmission of data to the production control room.
We integrate readers, cables, and other electronic components into the table’s design so that they do not interfere with the players or the production team. We determine the scope of the system on a case-by-case basis according to the requirements of each specific project.
Realizacja FAMA Game Tables
RFID Poker Table for the Sports Channel
In 2022, we set up an RFID table for live-streamed tournaments. The design combined a fully functional gaming station with the technology needed by the production team.
We hid the electronics and wiring inside the table, and the matte fabric minimized light reflections while the cameras were operating. The system allowed us to read the tagged cards and use the data as part of the broadcast.

The standard configuration is sufficient if you are satisfied with the available options for size, fabric, trim, base, and accessories.
