    i know this maybe a stupid question but just wanna know
    wot is the difference between pool and snooker?
    is it the same fing but called by different names?
    or is it a different game rule?<_<
     
  2. its COMPLETE different game... when you go to pool halls there are small tables and big tables.. small tables are for 8ball & 9 ball... big tables are for snooker....snooker is a more advanced game with alot more rules...smaller balls bigger table smaller holes compared to 8 ball.

    i think pool is prob the easier and funner game and snooker the harder and more tactical game.
