Pool and snooker are a bit different. Snooker table is bigger, too. Anyways, in both cases, I was shooting from somewhat across the table, not from either end. I'm decent at times. Not consistent, though. My brain's in the right place or it isn't. I don't practice, I just play when I feel like it. If it ain't goin right, I re-rack it, or more oftenly I just quit. I hate when things aren't going easy.

ya snooker is the true art of playing pool,could be 8 ball or full snooker
but it not like a 3-1/2 by 7 or 4-x-8 bar box,where u can wack the ball's
and they will fall into a larger pocket,snooker is a game of shot where the pocket is small and the table longer,and i do the same thing as u

You know, it's interesting that snooker was developed with such a large table in mind, given the smallness of British domestic quarters. Well, apparently, the officer's mess in India, I think it was, where snooker was conceived was a bit roomy. Even in the US, it's mainly been homes built since the 80s that have enough room some place in them to really fit a 4x8 table well. My table is 9', and it comfortably takes up the whole living room.
