Billiards is a game played on a large flat table with balls and pockets. It has similarities with other cue and ball games such as pool and snooker
A billiards table is rectangular in shape, perfectly flat and covered with green baize. There are six pockets; one at each corner and one in the middle of the two long sides. Unlike snooker, billiards is played with just three balls.
Other versions of the game are bar billiards and pocket billiards
