#Snooker

Snooker is a cue sport in which players use a cue to hit a white ball, called the cue ball, into a group of coloured balls. The objective is to score more points than the opponent by potting (sending into pockets) the balls in order of their value. The balls are worth different amounts of points, with the red balls worth one point each and the coloured balls worth different amounts: yellow (2 points), green (3 points), brown (4 points), blue (5 points), pink (6 points), and black (7 points).

The game is believed to have originated in the second half of the 19th century in #India, where #BritishArmyOfficers stationed in "Jubbulpore"(Jabalpur,M.P)India, were playing #Billiards. The game was originally called "Snooker Pool" and was a variation of Billiards. The name "Snooker" came from the term #Snookered, which is a situation in which a player is unable to hit a ball because it is blocked by another ball.

The first official Snooker competition was held in 1916, and the first professional Snooker Tournament was held in 1927. The game quickly grew in popularity in the #UnitedKingdom, and Joe Davis became the first snooker #superstar. Davis won the World Snooker Championship 15 consecutive times between 1927 and 1946.

Snooker declined in popularity in the 1950s and 1960s, but it experienced a #resurgence in the 1970s. This was due in part to the introduction of #color_television, which allowed people to watch snooker matches in their homes. The game also became more accessible to players from other countries, and by the 1980s, Snooker was a global sport and Snooker Tables and Ecosystems were "hot selling". 

Today, Snooker is one of the most popular #Cue_Sports in the world.

#TheWorldSnookerChampionship is the most prestigious Snooker Tournament, and it is held every year at the #CrucibleTheatre in #Sheffield, #England. The current world champion is Ronnie O'Sullivan, who has won the title seven times.
