The term "blackball" is used in this glossary to refer to both blackball and eight-ball pool as played in the UK, as a shorthand. Similarly, British terms predominate in the world of snooker, English billiards, and blackball, regardless of the players' nationalities. 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.
The terms "American" or "US" as applied here refer generally to North American usage. The labels " British" and " UK" as applied to entries in this glossary refer to terms originating in the UK and also used in countries that were fairly recently part of the British Empire and/or are part of the Commonwealth of Nations, as opposed to US (and, often, Canadian) terminology.

There are ten large televisions playing sports games for those using the upscale game boards or relaxing at the bar to watch. There will soon be three foosball tables and multiple dart boards for visitors to play on.
In addition, there is a ten foot long snookers table and 22 foot long shuffleboard. The Crimson Cue boasts ten billiard tables that are nine feet long, along with a seven foot long table. “I made it so everybody… in the community to enjoy can come here and feel comfortable seeing the pictures,” said owner Erik Skupien, who also noted that there is no negativity associated with the sports relics, and is meant to bring positivity to the community.
