What happens if pool table slate gets wet?

If your pool table gets wet, don't panic. Pool tables usually absorb water slowly so a spill will not cause any major damage. Even if there is a spill on the table, it won't ruin the slate- in most cases all that happens is that some of the water seeps through and evaporates over time.
