I agree, I don't think there is an automatic crossover between the two games. I quite like pool myself, and it does have the massive advantage of a smaller table, whcih means it can be pretty much played anywhere. I just prefer the deeper tactics of snooker.
I don't play much competitive chess over the board anymore, but can still be found on 'instantchess' most days, although I only play blitz nowadays. Perhaps I'm becoming more shallow (or have a shorter attention span) as I get older...
