  Snooker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Snooker is a billiards sport that is played on a large (12' × 6') baize-covered table with pockets in each of the four corners and in the middle of each of the long side cushions.
Snooker is played on a rectangular 6' by 12' (about 1.83m by 3.66m) table with six pockets, one at each corner and one in the middle of each long side.
Since players receive points for fouls by their opponents, snookering your opponent is a possible way to win a frame when potting all the balls on the table would be insufficient for you to win.
