Snooker

Snooker is played using a cue and 22 snooker balls.

An Overview of Snooker

The Snooker balls include: one white cue ball, 15 red balls worth one point each, and six balls of different colours: yellow (2 points), green (3 points), brown (4 points), blue (5 points), pink (6 points) and black (7 points). Points are scored by potting the red and coloured balls in the correct sequence. At the end of the game the winner is the player who scores the most points.
