Over the following decade, the number of professional tournaments increased, with 44 events held in the 2019-20 season. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the professional tour was confined to events played within the United Kingdom and Ireland. The main professional tour is open to both male and female players, and there is a separate women's tour organised by World Women's Snooker. To cater for the growing interest, smaller and more open snooker clubs were formed. In the early 20th century, snooker was predominantly played in the United Kingdom where it was considered a "gentleman's sport" until the early 1960s, before growing in popularity as a national pastime and eventually spreading overseas. The word snooker was a well-established derogatory term used to describe inexperienced or first-year military personnel. The word snooker was, at the time, a slang term used in the British Army to describe new recruits and inexperienced military personnel; Chamberlain used it to deride the inferior performance of a young fellow officer at the table.

UK-the BBC dedicated 400 hours to snooker in 2007, compared to just 14 minutes 40 years earlier. The World Snooker Championship first took place in 1927. Joe Davis, a key figure and pioneer in the early growth of the sport, won fifteen successive world championships between 1927 and 1946. The "modern era" of snooker began in 1969 after the broadcaster BBC commissioned the television series Pot Black, later airing daily coverage of the World Championship, which was first televised in 1978. The most prominent players of the modern era are Ray Reardon in the 1970s, Steve Davis in the 1980s, and Stephen Hendry in the 1990s, each winning at least six world titles. Davis won all fifteen tournaments held until 1946, when he retired from the championships. Played in 1926 and 1927, the first World Snooker Championship-then known as the Professional Championship of Snooker-was won by Joe Davis. 1978 World Snooker Championship was the first to receive daily television coverage. Snooker Shoot Out, which is a timed, one-frame competition.

The popularity of snooker has led to the creation of many variations based on the standard game, but using different rules or equipment, including six-red snooker, the short-lived "snooker plus", and the more recent Snooker Shoot Out version. A player (or team) continues to shoot until committing a foul or failing to legally pocket an object ball (whether intentionally or not); thereupon it is the turn of the opposing players. At the start of a frame, the object balls are positioned on the table as shown in illustration A. Starting with the cue ball in the "D", the first player executes a break-off shot by striking the cue ball with the tip of their cue, aiming to hit any of the red balls in the triangular pack. Coloured ball racking positions must be remembered with care, as each time a coloured ball is potted, it is immediately replaced to its starting position, which occurs multiple times per frame, what is billiards whereas reds are not returned to the table's surface after being potted.

The colours must next be potted in the ascending order of their values, from lowest to highest, i.e. yellow first (worth two points), then green (three points), brown (four points), blue (five points), pink (six points), and finally black (seven points); each colour remains in the pocket after being potted. In one-pocket, in which a set number of balls must be made in a specific pocket, upon a foul the player must return a ball to the table. At the end of each shot, the cue ball remains in the position where it has come to rest (unless it has entered a pocket, where it is returned to the "D") ready for the next shot. When attempting a bank shot, it’s essential to consider the position of both the cue ball and target ball, as well as any obstacles on the table. When playing away from a touching ball, the player is not required to strike another object ball. If the cue ball finishes in contact with an object ball, a touching ball is called.
