Fortuna

«Fortuna» on Aivazovskogo Street, 53, is a billiards club in Yekaterinburg that has been operating since 2010 in the tradition of Russian billiards. The Chkalovskaya metro station is nearby, so it's easy to get to. The large hall has tables for general use, while the small hall offers a quieter setting for those who want to play without the noise. There's a VIP table in a secluded area of the main hall and a separate VIP room for private play. The club suits both beginners and experienced players. Open amateur tournaments in Moscow pyramid are held on weekend afternoons, and on the first Saturday of the month there's a free pyramid tournament: participation is free, the loser pays for the table with a 20% discount, and winners receive prizes from the club. For those looking to improve their technique, the club runs a billiards school — coaches with sports rankings, including a Master of Sports, give individual lessons. The club has a bar, and tables can be booked in advance online or by phone — at least a day before your visit. The average bill is between 1,000 and 3,000 rubles.
