Frequently asked questions

• What is snooker?

  Often mistaken for pool, snooker is a cue sport played with 22 balls (1 white cue ball, 15 red balls and 6 balls in other colours) on a rectangular table with 6 pockets.

  In a game (called a "frame") of snooker, players take alternate turns shooting coloured balls in the pockets using the cue ball. If a red ball is pocketed, the next pocketed ball must be of a different colour (and vice versa), or else the player fouls. Players earn points by pocketing balls, and the most points wins.

  The foremost professional tournament in the sport is the World Snooker Championship, which takes place every year between April and May.

• Where can I watch a live snooker stream in Canada?

  In Canada, you can watch a snooker live stream with a DAZN subscription, which costs $24.99 monthly or $199.99 annually.

• Snooker vs pool: What's the difference?

  Snooker consists of 22 balls, 15 of which are red. All are solid coloured with no numbers. On the other hand, pool requires 16 balls, a mixture of solid-coloured and striped balls, some of which are numbered. Snooker balls are slightly larger than pool balls.

  Another difference between the 2 sports is in the gameplay. In pool, players can aim to get any ball in a pocket, and they must call their shots in advance. In snooker, players must alternate the colour of the balls they pocket; if a red ball is pocketed, a different-coloured ball must be pocketed next and vice versa.
