Billiards is any of several games played with a leather-tipped stick, the cue, and various numbers of balls on an oblong, cloth-covered table with raised, cushioned edges. The three main types are carom billiards, played with three balls on a pocketless table, pocket billiards or pool, using a cue ball and 15 object balls on a table with six pockets and snooker, similar to pool but with 21 object balls
