Billiards is a family of games played on a table with a stick, known as a cue
stick, which is used to strike balls, moving them around the table. All billiard
games are generally regarded to have evolved into indoor games from outdoor stick
and ball games.[1] The word "billiard" may have evolved from the French word billart,
meaning "mace", an implement, similar to a golf club, which was the forerunner to
the modern cue. The word "pool" generally refers to pocket billiard games such as
8-ball, 9-ball, straight pool and one-pocket. The word "pool" comes from "poolrooms,"
where people gambled off track on horse races. They were called poolrooms as money
was "pooled" to determine the odds. Because such rooms commonly provided billiard
tables, pool became synonymous with billiards by association. The terms "pool" and
"pocket billiards" are now interchangeable.
About billiard game
Nine ball billiard game 9-Ball is a rotation game where only the 1 through
9 balls and cue ball are used. The player at the table must make a legal shot on
the lowest numbered ball on the table or a foul is called. The game is won by legally
pocketing the nine ball (which can be done by striking the lowest numbered ball
first and then driving the 9 into a pocket). 9-Ball is the predominant professional
game. There are many local and regional tours and tournaments that are contested
with 9-Ball. There is no particular governing body of 9-ball. Most places play with
a version of "Texas Express" or WPA (World Pool Association) rules. The largest
9-ball tournaments are the independent US Open and the World 9-Ball Championships
for men and women. Male professionals have a rather fragmented schedule of professional
9-Ball tournaments at this time (2005). Female professionals have a steady professional
circuit that is governed by the Women's Professional Billiard Association.
