I have hardly seen people discussed about Snooker unlike other games, mostly discussion about Football, Table tennis, poker much others.

my passion for Snooker all started when i was very little then, i follows my uncle to some joint where they plays over it but since i was very tender i never knew it was all for gambling. Anytime i sets eyes on snooker it keeps the memory awakes so gradually i picked interest about it. i can be liken to gamble over it.

please more discussion about snooker can be detailed here if you have any. i really want to gain more knowledge.

It is a really fun game along with pool, however I'm not sure it'll ever have a very high reach reach across the world. It does take an expert touch, but it has been televised in certain countries for decades now and just doesn't seem athletic enough to capture a wide audience. It can seem a little boring and dreary to some sports fans with little room for action. It's a very enjoyable game to be playing in person around friends while you have a drink but that's probably the extent of it. Just got to be grateful that you can find fairly big championships in certain countries like the UK and there will always be someone taking bets on the biggest events, with some of the players becoming semi-celebrities.

Well, with a lot of games that we could choose and play I don't think someone would come up to make a thread about snooker or pool here. Although, I don't know if it's getting less popular or not many people would choose to talk about it. I love pool games although I can't make a topic about it since I do play different games too. It's just that it's not on my priority list since I'm preoccupied with those gambling games but I like to make a bet about it if I like the player.

Snooker is not too popular compared to other sports betting such as football, tennis, MMA, or poker. People here prefer to play Billiards in a cafe and gamble with their friends and the winner can pay for the drinks. So I guess that it is not easy to find snooker gambling sites or even crypto gambling sites that have snooker on their list. Maybe there are fiat gambling sites that have snooker games on their site but I do not search for more as I do not use fiat to gamble.
Snooker games lack good adverts just like other games and it's more of an indoor or recreational game or played in tournament which doesn't come often. Except for virtual snooker games which you get on casinos sites or some gambling sites or most likely on a physical casino where you face your opponent indirectly. I don't really think there is really much to discuss about snooker games except during tournaments

Snooker is played on a table similar to a pool table... different set of rules, different table, different balls, you get the picture. Smiley
Here you can read more about it, a bit about the history, rules, etc What Is the Difference Between Billiards, Pool, and Snooker?

In my country the pool was popular... we were watching older people playing in money and we were doing the same thing, it was +20 years ago! Every neighborhood had a place or two with arcades, pools, and table soccer! Now I think there's just one place with these games in town that I know, before kids I use to go and play with my wife, sometimes vs another couple sometimes alone, that was 3 years ago since then I didn't come near the pool table!

Snooker is something I only saw on tv, I never had a chance to play it! From what I saw I didn't get all the rules, it was interesting for me how they are trying to clear those red balls while they are missing other balls, you need to be skilled to do that!
I already heard of the game but it was long time ago. Now what goes my mind after reading the word snooker is its like swimming due to the word snook but I remember now that it was called snork or snorkling xd. So, the game is similar to billiard. Billiard is more popular than snooker but there is no active billiard threads in this forum.

I guess people here only like to focus on the mainstream sports but there must be a forum that are dedicated to sports and every sports are equally being talked about. You can try searching for that OP if snooker really gets your interest. I understand that this sport gives you feeling of nostalgia; that's nice.

In my country we almost exclusively play pool, it's very hard to find a snooker table. Almost every decent bar has atleast one pool table. Since my childhood I like to play it and generally prefer pool because it's easier and has more colors. My uncle taught me the game and it was also the first time I started to gamble. We never gambled for money, only for things. So when I won I could get my favourite ice-cream or some chocolate. Later when growing up I did the same with my friends, we usually just play for beers, never really for money. There often snooker games on TV, it's cool to watch how good the professionals are playing. But I never thought about betting on those matches. Is it more easy to make money in snooker betting than in football betting? Maybe because there are less gamblers the chances are higher?
I also prefer to play pool.

There was not that much exposure in my neighborhood when I was a kid with snooker games. There were a lot of pool tables but not so many snooker tables and players were there.

That's why as the influence of that neighborhood, I've played more pool and even during my secondary school. I've got a classmate that's into pool who also has their own table to play for free.

please more discussion about snooker can be detailed here if you have any. i really want to gain more knowledge.

Based on my observation:

Number 1, only a few here are interested in that sports.

Number 2, snooker I think is not on a regular basis like there's a regular-season or what. It was done thru special events. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Number 3, you can start the discussion of it by sharing your own thoughts. I'm sure others will follow and just waiting for a thread like this.

Snooker is such a fun and exciting game which I used to play when I was younger. It isn't as famous as other sports but it also provides entertainment. Maybe the reason why we aren't hearing too much about it is that it isn't well known, unlike other sports. I hope that more sites would offer this kind of sports betting and for sure, more gamblers would be interested on it.

Snooker, I love to play it as well and everyone has the dream of playing it in the physical world but due to thr evolution of technology it is available for everyone also people with skills can beat the novice so its more of a skill based game so didn't have lot of attraction like casino based games are having.

someone here makes Snooker bets: I particularly like Snooker but I don't see myself taking money and betting on Snooker because honestly it is very difficult for me to analyze who can win the Snooker game, what would be the factors that would dictate the advantage and disadvantage between two Snooker opponents:

Can anyone here predict the outcome of a snooker match?

For me I think snooker is a game of skills and luck might be a small fraction but it does not mean that you are going to win that game hands down.


Even pro billiard player wants to play snooker. In our country, The most famous billiard player here Efren "Bata" Reyes favorite game is snooker. He even wants to compete on this game internationally rather than billiards on his current physical condition. The only problem on this game was there's only few tournaments available worldwide because of its low popularity due to billiards and pool sports.

The games is partly luck base compared to billiards that you play perfectly if you calculate well each shot. I don't know if this thread will get much attention since the game is not that popular anymore.

If you are focused on snooker+ Gambling you would be happy to know that it's already something that is being gambled upon since a really long time. There are many sites that offers that and at the same time you can check it out on Google itself.

For me I think snooker is a game of skills and luck might be a small fraction but it does not mean that you are going to win that game hands down.

The easiest would be to actually go out with your friends and then gamble on it but still there are many sites available online that are providing the snooker tournament or the opportunity to gamble on the game, there are many advertisements available online And sites like : https://www.paddypower.com
But I haven't tried it so idk.

Yes, you are right, the game of Snooker, rarely people make bets, the Snooker game is almost the same as the Billiards game, the style is different, so that kind of game often people bet on the place/location, after all, there are rarely gambling sites that provide Snooker games, although there are certain sites, but very rarely.

For this reason, the Snooker Game is only for certain people who want to place bets, not the same as betting on football, boxing etc, for various reasons and bettors feel bored so rarely want to bet on Snooker games and rarely discussed here.

So it's kind of billiards but a different set of rules? Probably why it isn't that known, most people would probably know (and prefer) the well known billiards instead of that, not to mention that billiards isn't exactly a very famous sport (at least, on some countries). There should still be matches that are being betted on though, not that I know where exactly since I don't look for them. Others have said it though, so goodluck to you finding it. Might watch a few matches since it's honestly my first time finding the term.

What knowledge? About the sports itself? Or on the betting side, wherein a discussion on who to bet?

I know the game, I know the mechanics, but not familiar with their league in general. If you are following snooker and being passionate about the game, I'm sure you are well aware of their current league.

Checking stake.com, there's a variety of upcoming matches: https://stake.com/sports/snooker
Maybe you are aware of those names.

Pool and Snooker are not as popular as before. I believe even prizes for international competitions also dropped a lot maybe due to lack of public interest and private sponsors. Their "golden era" was probably before bitcoin was born.

I played pool and snooker and I preferred pool for many reasons. Snooker a bit more difficult, so it can be a challenge especially for beginners.

Which one did you play first? I think those who started with Pool find it harder to transition to Snooker.

When you're younger you learn everything much faster and don't care that you suck at it, you keep playing until you get better Cheesy
I know a few people who know how to play but not a single one that would watch games or actually know the scene and that includes me. Are you by any chance British? It's a popular sport there.
