Oh, I've played pool. So, is Snooker played the same way or with different rules?

A hushpuppy is a savory food made from cornmeal batter that is deep fried or baked and rolled as a small ball, commonly served as a side for seafood or chicken.
The name comes from when hunters and fishermen would have cookouts they'd toss the fried cornmeal to quiet the dogs begging for food.
Another story is that during the Civil War, soldiers would toss the fried cornmeal to dogs to stop their barking.

I don't think we really get that.

So pool has what, 7 spots, 7 stripes, and the black ball? Snooker has 15 red balls (worth 1 point each), and one each of yellow (2), green (3), brown (4), blue (5), pink (6), and black (7 points). To build a break, you must pot a red, colour, red, colour etc. etc. Fouls are similar to pool, but instead of shots being awarded for fouls, points are given to the opposition.

Aye. There's pretty big prize money involved in that, and you don't want to lose track
