I'm terrible at snooker. Billiards (with the numbered balls and the small tables) is much easier, but the big tables of snooker are murder. I've actually missed the target ball completely on occasion, never mind putting it in the pocket.

Can't do snooker.

Billiards I'm decent enough as is.

About time to get the cue out of the bag and play again.

Snooker tables are far and few inbetween where I live, but the few times I have played I really enjoyed the game.

Snooker tables are huge and they have those impossible pockets that the balls just won't sink into unless everything's just right. I always end up bouncing balls off the "corners" of the pockets or even have them go straight in, hit the back and bounce straight back out! It takes me like an hour to finish a single game, well at least it seem like it!

Practice(didn't have a friend who had a table so I worked in my first year of college at a pool hall...)

A fun thing about playing pool is that you get to see hot chicks leaning over the tables to make shots and showing way more cleavage than they intended to. :)

Fun fun fun. I'm decent at times. Amazing at others. And downright pathetic for the rest.

I used to play 9-ball down at the local pool hall all the time. When I went to college, though, the student union tables (both of them) were pieces of shit and there was always five or six frat assholes ahead of you waiting to play. So I'm out of practice.

I play snooker weekly, but i consider myself slightly better at billiards, mainly because i can sink the white ball quite easily :D

I also like pool and if the oub i'm at has a pool table i will always try and get a game in. Like both 8-ball (UK rules, ie. 2 shots if opponent fouls) and 9-ball.
