What is a "snooker table"?
A snooker table is a large, rectangular table used to play the game of snooker, a cue sport similar to billiards. The table is typically covered in green cloth and has six pockets—one at each corner and one in the middle of each long side. It is marked with specific spots where the balls are placed at the beginning of the game. Snooker tables are larger than typical pool tables and are designed to accommodate the specific rules of snooker, including the use of 21 balls. They are usually made of high-quality wood and are commonly found in dedicated game rooms, clubs, or leisure centers.
