Snooker's a great game if one keeps ones eye in and has a little technique. They used to show the world championships here on a late night BBC channel but not for quite a few years now. I used to sit up till like 4 am or something to watch it :yesnod:

Good to post a link Adnan. :) Hehe Graham, I used to play on the 6x12's and I really killed all the players on a regular pool table that you would find in a bar. :lol:

Nearly got myself killed too! Bunch of morons didn't like to lose a couple of hundred in a half hour! :roflmao: They had the break and I cleaned up! Thankfully, the whole bunch of bar people that were there were my friends and sort of 'persuaded' them to honour the debt. :whistle :lol:

LMAO Algis :lol: Bar Pool can get quite rough. It's not easy to find a snooker table around anymore - except at private clubs, but ALL the pubs have pool tables.

Ya, I agree with 'rough'. I'm handicapped and could never have defended myself against them, they never did bother me afterwards. :lol: Good thing to have people that respect you and friends that are itching for a reason to bash someone's idiot head in. :lol: Gawd love 'em. :) Jeez, I'm even tearing up remembering that day.

I have to admit I'd also never heard of Snooker. But then again, I didn't know Billiards was "Pool" for a while either when I was younger.

BTW, I didn't get away scot free either, Let me see, dislocated right index finger, busted glasses and a great shiner on the left eye. I figure I was lucky before the erm 'intervention'. ^*^ :lol:

I think Billiards refers to all sports played with a cue. Pool is a specific type of billiards, as is snooker.

OK, I had to google that, but I always thought that billiards wasn't the right word for pool lol. I've got clubhouse games on my DS and billiards is 9-ball i believe.
