Points accumulated by potting successive object balls are called a "break" (see Scoring below). If the cue ball finishes in contact with an object ball, a touching ball is called. When playing away from a touching ball, the player is not required to strike another object ball. At the start of each player's turn, the objective is to first pot a red ball, unless all reds are off the table, or the player has been awarded a free ball, which allows them to nominate another object ball instead of a red. If successful, the value of the potted colour is added to the player's score, and the ball is returned to its designated spot on the table. At the end of each shot, the cue ball remains in the position where it has come to rest (unless it has entered a pocket, where it is returned to the "D") ready for the next shot. The game continues until every red ball has been potted and only the six colours and the cue ball are left on the table. The colours must next be potted in the ascending order of their values, from lowest to highest, i.e. yellow first (worth two points), then green (three points), brown (four points), blue (five points), pink (six points), and finally black (seven points); each colour remains in the pocket after being potted.

The first four turns must be taken to play the four balls onto the lawn from one of two "baulk lines" defined as one yard into the lawn on the western half of the south boundary and the eastern half of the north boundary. If the ball gets in the cup, the two hurry to switch places and equipment, starting the process again. Failure to make contact with a red ball constitutes a foul, which results in penalty points being awarded to the opponent. The tip of the cue must only make contact with the cue ball and is never used for striking any of the reds or colours directly. The cue ball may contact an object ball directly or it can be made to bounce off one or more cushions before hitting the required object ball. Carom games such as straight-rail, three-cushion, balkline, and five pins make use of only three balls: a red object ball, one solid white cue ball for player one, and another cue ball that is white with a dot on it, or yellow, what is billiards for player two. The billiard balls, formerly made of ivory or Belgian clay, are now usually plastic; they each measure from about 21/4 to 23/8 inches (5.7 to 6 cm) in diameter, the larger balls being used in carom billiards.

In a variety of the game called three-cushion billiards, the cue ball must also touch a cushion or cushions three or more times to complete a carom. The process of hitting the target balls with the cue balls as you make three rails in tandem is called ‘carom’. These are shots that are designed to make playing a legal shot harder, such as leaving another ball between the cue ball and the object ball. Snooker accessories include: chalk for the tip of the cue, used to help apply spin on the cue ball; various sorts of rest, such as the swan or spider for playing shots that are difficult to play by hand; extensions for lengthening the cue stick; a triangle for racking the reds; and a scoreboard which is typically attached to a wall near the snooker table. A traditional snooker scoreboard resembles an abacus and records the points scored by each player for the current frame in units and twenties, as well as the frame scores. The player must then play away from that ball without moving it or else the player will concede penalty points. Even if the cue ball is struck in precisely the same manner, the effect of the nap will differ according to whether the ball is directed towards the baulk line or towards the opposite end of the table.

A snooker ball set consists of twenty-two unmarked balls: fifteen reds, six colour balls, and one white cue ball. The table has six pockets, one at each corner and one at the centre of each of the two longer side cushions. They were popular because the tiny pieces of glass set in stone they used would last longer than other types of paintings in the environment of cathedrals. Perfect for newer tables built to look like modern art pieces. Whether you're looking to entertain guests or spend quality time with family and friends, the 4IN1 convertible pool table is the perfect choice. A good option is to hang your light between 40 inches and 70 inches above the pool table. 1⁄16 inches (52.5 mm). Players will often play on even when there are not enough points available for them to win, hoping to force their opponent into playing foul shots by laying snookers.
