Although it is seemingly less favoured today than the game of Pool, Snooker is one of the oldest pub games and sports in the world. It has evolved somewhat over the years, but this game is still as exciting now as it was when it was first invented. The aim of the game is to pot the balls in the correct order and try to score as many points as possible whilst remaining at the table, if your opponent scores more than you, then you lose.
Snooker is a professional game, with world championships held every year. The game draws in huge crowds and some of its best players have earned millions of dollars playing the game. It is not as popular in the United States as it is in places such as the United Kingdom, Australia and even in parts of Asia, but it generally has a large following all over the world and one that is growing year on year.
