professionaly made table legs from a furniture store for anywhere from $40 up to $300. A good option that Ive heard of people using is to go to a local furnature store and speak to a manager. You may be able to get really nice pedistal legs for a really cheap price if you get lucky. The reason is that table tops often get damaged and the legs are still good. Furniture stores often have these damaged tables in their warehouse and are ready to part with them.

If you decide that you would like the poker table to be somewhat portable, you may want to pick up some folding legs. These work nice if you have to move the table into storage between poker nights. Another plus is that they are cheap.

Chosing the right legs or base for your poker table is a matter of preference and a matter of how much money you want to spend. Remember that if you only want to spend a few bucks, a few 4x4s and a little paint is not a bad option.
