How Old Is The Game Of Billiards? |
|
Answer» Eight-Ball was invented shortly after 1900; Straight Pool followed in 1910. Nine-Ball seems to have developed around 1920. While the term "billiards" REFERS to all games played on a billiard table, with or without pockets, some people take billiards to MEAN carom games only and USE pool for pocket games.
