Snooker is a cue sport that is typically played on a table covered with a green material, with 6 pockets situated in each

of the four corners and two in middle. A regular (full-size) table is 3.7 1.8 m. It is played using a cue and 22 snooker balls. A player (or team) wins a frame (individual game) of snooker by scoring more points than the opponent, using the cue to pot balls. A player wins a match when a certain number of frames have been won. A match generally consists of a predefined number of frames and the player who wins the most frames wins the match overall. Most professional matches require a player to win five frames, and are called "Best of Nine" as that is the maximum possible number of frames. Proffesional tournaments can have 35 frames in length, and is played over two days, extended if necessary until a winner is determined. Snooker, is a recent invention and generally regarded as having been invented in India by British Army officers, is popular in many of the English-speaking countries, with top professional players .The sport is now increasingly popular in China. At the start of a frame, the balls are positioned as shown in this picture

15 red balls, with value of 1 point 6 balls, called colored balls: yellow ball that is valued with (2 points), green ball (3 points), brown ball (4 points ), blue one (5 points), pink (6 points ) and the black ball (7 points). One white ball

The player who begins first, have to pot one of the red balls. If he potted it he can pot one of the colored balls. If he execute correctly all the hits he will continue his turn. His turn will finish and he could be penalized if: The ball is not potted in the pocket. The white ball doesnt collide any ball. The player hit one of restricted balls. One game, from the balls in their starting position until the last ball is potted, is called a frame. My favorite snooker player is Mark Williams. He was born and lives in Wales (UK). He is the first left-handed who won the World Championship. He is called Welsh Potting Machine because of his mastery. He won about 20 Championships. The last his game Ive watched was Tournament Shanghai Masters 2011, and he was amazing, but he won just the second place .
