Snooker anyone?

I don't know the rules either. But I think this guy's probably pretty good at it.

Okay, it looks like:

1 - All the reds have to be cleared before any of the other colors
2 - Every time you sink a red you must then sink the black, which is then replaced in its spot by a servant from the working class
3 - Once all reds are cleared, you must then clear all the colored balls, followed by the black

Don't know what happens if you miss or mess up, because the guy was flawless.

Pretty Good??? Flawless??? This guy was PERFECT!!! That's the maxium score possible (unless you were to sink two, three or four numbered balls on the break, but that "messes up the table" and makes it hard to continue). He took the black ball (7 points) after EVERY red ball and never allowed his opponent a turn. The equivelent of a 300 in Bowling.

It a fun game (UNLESS YOUR PLAYING THIS GUY) and the term "Snookered" comes from this game!
(Snookered, a situation where the previous player finished his/her turn leaving the cue ball in a position where none of the balls on can be struck at both extreme edges free of obstruction by any ball not on) It's used in other games of pool and billards too!
