Hi and hello,
I'm from the US, living in Istanbul. I happened across snooker last year on Eurosport and couldn't stop watching! I searched around online to learn about the rules and then later joined the board to learn more about the sport (and about the different characters within it )
I never enjoyed playing pool or billiards. I think the reason I find the sport so engaging is the slow-burning drama (to quote one of the commentators). My other favorite sport to watch is baseball which is similar in that it's long and the game can take a while to develop.
Thanks to all for your humor and insights. I've learned a lot and that makes spectating even more enjoyable.
