Which is more difficult snooker or pool?

Snooker tables are usually lower-set and bigger than pool tables, but their pockets are smaller than those of pool tables. A standard full-size UK snooker table measures 12 ft × 6 ft, which is double the length of a 6ft pool table. Snooker tables use a similar cloth to pool tables.

Are snooker or pool players better?
The simple and truthful answer is that snooker players have better mechanics than pool players. These mechanics have evolved over the decades, and are necessary as snooker tables are bigger and have smaller pockets. “Accuracy” is therefore the ultimate skill necessary in snooker.
