More specifically, chalk allowed players to begin to impart "spin" (or what is now called "english" in America) to the cue ball, which drastically effected how the game was played. In some games, three successive fouls in a row is a loss of game. The following is a glossary of traditional English-language terms used in the three overarching cue sports disciplines: carom billiards referring to the various carom games played on a billiard table without pockets; pool, which denotes a host of games played on a table with six pockets; and snooker, played on a large pocket table, and which has a sport culture unto itself distinct from pool. It is the hope of many a pool player that pool will eventually be recognized as an Olympic level sport. Nowadays, pool has evolved into a richly complex sport that is played in most countries around the world by richly varying rules.

The World Championship, the UK Championship, and the Masters together make up the Triple Crown Series, considered by many players to be the most highly valued titles. Remember, too bright, and your players will be distracted. Similarly, British terms predominate in the world of snooker, English billiards, and blackball, regardless of the players' nationalities. Blackball was chosen because it is less ambiguous ("eight-ball pool" is too easily confused with the international standardized "eight-ball"), and blackball is globally standardized by an International Olympic Committee-recognized governing body, the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA); meanwhile, its ancestor, eight-ball pool, is largely a folk game, like North American bar pool, and to the extent that its rules have been codified, they have been done so by competing authorities with different rulesets. Turner, Chris. "World Professional Championship". These are used for amateur and professional play. Shots are not called. On a turn, a player may earn extra shots in two ways. Today, nitrate film projection is rare and normally highly regulated and requires extensive precautions, including extra health-and-safety training for projectionists. The 1997 miniseries features the use of croquet however, Stanley Kubrick's 1980 film adaptation uses a fire axe instead. However, due to the predominance of US-originating terminology in most internationally competitive pool (as opposed to snooker), US terms are also common in the pool context in other countries in which English is at least a minority language, and US (and borrowed French) terms predominate in carom billiards.

Some other early modern sources refer to pall-mall being played over a large distance (as in golf); however, an image in Strutt's 1801 book shows a croquet-like ground billiards game (balls on the ground, hoop, bats, and peg) being played over a short, garden-sized distance. The next shot must move both the player's ball and the roqueted ball, and it is the "croquet" stroke that gives the game its name. In UK eight-ball this would normally give the opponent the option of one of two plays: (1) ball-in-hand with two shots; (2) being allowed to contact, or even pot, a ball other than one from their set from the snookered position (although the black may not be potted), with the loss of the first shot. Also free shot. A situation where a player has fouled, leaving the opponent snookered. In addition, some variations of the game allow the player to pot one of the opposition's balls, on the first visit only, without the loss of a "free shot". See the Nine-ball § Derived games section for the game. In some games such as straight pool, a foul results in a loss of one or more points.

In straight pool, a third successive foul results in a loss of 16 points (15 plus one for the foul). The objective of a billiards game is to score a fixed amount of points, or to score the highest number of points within a set time limit that is agreed upon at the beginning of the game. In competitions, competitors would have three chances to successfully perform each trick, what is billiards earning full points if they are successful on their first attempts and incrementally reduced points for subsequent attempts. The glucose repeat unit (anhydroglucose) within the cellulose chain has three OH groups, each of which can form a nitrate ester. As brands can have slightly different ball sizes, it turns out that your cue ball and other balls have minor differences in terms of size. The offending player forfeits their turn and the opposing player can place and shoot the cue ball from anywhere on the table, in any direction.
