Simon Buckingham has written a great article at SnooHoo, telling us the basic difference between pool and snooker. Such information is often assumed known, but many professionals will fail to accurately distinguish between the two. So, here are the major differences between these two amazing cuesports.\nPool and snooker are two similar sports which both entail using sticks called cues to pocket balls of different colors into six holes on the sides and corners of a rectangular table. Yet these two sports go a long way to illustrate the difference between the old organized world and the new unorganized world.\n\nSnooker is a sport from the age old organized tradition. You are much more likely to get dressed up when playing snooker, often in a dinner suit and bow tie. You play snooker on a long table of well over two meters in length and a meter wide. You hit the balls gently, relying on their smooth passage across the slate-bedded table to reach their destination pocket.\n\nBecause the table is so large, success (known as "break building": an unbroken series of pocketing the balls) depends upon using spin to position the white cue ball for potting the subsequent ball. There are set rules which are strictly adhered to, for example, if you accidentally tap a snooker ball with the end of your cue you "foul" and forfeit your shot.\n\nSnooker is played at a thoughtful, leisurely pace and some time can elapse between shots. One frame between average players can take up a good hour. \n\nThe contrast between snooker and pool is clear. Pool represents the unorganized world. You can play in any clothes that you find comfortable. The pool table is much smaller, just over a meter in length and less than a meter wide. The pockets are larger relative to the size of the balls. Paradoxically, even though the pool table is smaller, you tend to hit the balls harder because the cloth on the table (which can be and often is blue or red as well as green) is more coarse. The rules are less strict, insofar as the acceptance of minor mistakes when setting up a shot tends to be greater. The pace of pool is quicker: you don't need complicated implements such as "spiders" which are supplementary cues that let you reach areas of the snooker table in order to play shots that human size would otherwise preclude.\n\nGames between good pool players can be over in 10 minutes. There is less break building because the table is small enough for the good players to pot a few balls and win. \nPool is a sport which is much more attuned to today's quicker, faster unorganized world than the more organized world of snooker. Our goals remain the same: personal prosperity (potting the balls) and the infrastructure of the world (the table) is smaller and more accessible. As with the world, pool games are played at a faster speed, the rules are fewer, innovation rather than strategy much more important. The entry barriers are lower: people who have not played pool or snooker before can pick up a short pool cue and have a go and pot something. \nNew beginners could be playing snooker a long time before they pocket a ball. The start up costs for the pool equipment are lower, and the ease of carrying around a pool cue greater.\n\nWith its smaller table and wider pockets, pool is like technological capitalism, giving its players both the opportunity and the opportunity to pursue that opportunity.\n\nThe image of the pool player in the movie "The Hustler" contrasts with that of the gentleman in his country mansion playing snooker. As someone once said, "The best things come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle". Rack up those pool balls, and play on, play on. \n\nthis answer provided by: Internet_Professor\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=AgZKwWiLBpWHkgb7xuemvlwezKIX?show=AA10505536

Get trained. You need strong swimming skills and good technique or you are risking your  life as well. Try the Red Cross, or a similar organization. Since I don't know where you live I can't make any other suggestions for training.\nAlways supervise children and pets around the pool. Even a short distraction can be fatal.

Discipline. You need have discipline, as needed by your profile. \n\nEveryone have to do it. Life is not only do what you like, but think about next 10 years. Nerds are not allowed to study too. School is too boring and so primitive, but discipline is the key. \n\nWhy Japan, Spartans, Romans and Germans did what they did? Discipline! \n\nYou do not need the Top 10, but need have regular results to guarantee yourself, your habits and improve your player skills.

It depends on the game you are playing, but there are two very popular games played on the standard pool table.  Eight ball features15 balls one being the black eight ball, seven solids and seven stripes.  The object is to sink all of your balls (either solid or stripes) in any of the six pockets before sinking the eight ball.  A player may continue shooting until he misses a ball.  If a shot cannot be made, then it is to the players advantage to "hook" his opponant leaving the cue ball in a spot where a shot is difficult or impossible, thus regaining control of the game.\n\nNine ball is played with the balls numbered 1 through 9.  The object is to sink each ball in numerical order, sinking the nine ball last.  Each ball is worth one point, the nine is worth two.  In competative pool, players have to reach a certain number of points before their opponant. In tournament play it often goes by games won-like the first to win eleven games, as opposed to recording points.  A player may win the game early if they sink the nineball using the numbered ball they are hitting.  For example if I am shooting the one ball, I can hit the one into the nine and pocket it, winning the game.  Strategy is important in nineball, along with cueball control.  It is a great game to play to practice banking, hooking, and cueball control.\n\nBesides these two games there are other variations that can be found, and many bars have their own house rules. In an unfamiliar place it is a good idea to check what the rules are before play.

1: No Comprende'.  I haven't seen any age restrictions on this site, which in some ways is a good thing.  There are people here asking questions that need good answers they may not feel comfortable talking to parents or other adults about.  \n\nThe best thing you can do is teach your kid the rules, internet etiquette, and what they should avoid and why. \n\n2:  I LOVE nationalgeographic.com.  It's fascinating.  \n      Wikipedia.org\n     http://animal.discovery.com/\n     http://www.mbayaq.org/ <- monterey bay aquarium.  Awesome, awesome awesome.

* Bubbles\n* Water-guns 3 for $1 at the dollar store.\n* If you can borrow/buy a little plastic pool - they love water. If not - do you have a sprinkler? Let 'em play on that!\n* Games like pin the tail on the donkey are fun\n* Another game - don't spill the beans.  Use dried beans - like pinto beans - and let them use a big plastic spoon. Fill the spoon with a certain number of beans and have them walk from point A to point B.  The child with the most beans wins!\n* Finger paint/pudding.  Color vanilla pudding w/different color food coloring and let them 'paint' and eat on their paper plates!\n* Make plain cupcakes and let them decorate w/sprinkles\n* Silly songs and dances\n* Pinatas are fun - but watch how those little guys swing! lol\n* A puppet show with socks. Let each kid make a puppet using markers and all your mismatched socks. Glue buttons on for eyes and let them decorate the rest of the puppet w/markers.  \n* If it's a boy - let them make worms and dirt.  Make choc pudding and put it in little cups.  Let them add the crushed oreo cookies to the top (to make it look like dirt) and give them gummy worms to put in the 'dirt'. Give 'em a spoon and let them eat!\n\nHope those ideas help.  \n\n~Maxie
