I like Snooker as well, to me its the queen of all billiard games, I like it even better than Carambolage. But I absolutely suck at it. The first time I stood beside such a table, I was intimidated. Heck, those things are
huge!
I was an okay player with usual 8 ball pool in my university years. But that does not compare to Snooker. For those not knowing, the tables can be more than twice as big, the pockets are tighter and the balls are slightly smaller. Its not twice as difficult - it several times more difficult than any pool. What pro snooker player can do, borders magic in my eyes. These days I just play Virtual Pool 4, including Snooker.
Saves me the pain in my back...
