Generally considered to have first been played in around 1875, the game of snooker has certainly come a long way from the Indian subcontinent to the televised big-money tournaments we can watch today. Many consider the game as being quintessentially English. And though many of yesteryear's most famous players hailed from the UK, today most of the upcoming snooker stars are coming from the Far East. You can bet on snooker with almost any sportsbook. We suggest that you keep the bets simple.

In all sports there can only be one winner. Everyone else is a runner up or a loser. No one wants to be that person. This means that there's a huge amount of pressure on athletes to win. And let's not forget the huge sponsorship deals and paydays you can expect by being the best of the best. There's just a small coterie of players fighting to be top dog. You'll see the same faces over and over. Because of this, the media likes to create stories revolving around the making of sports rivalries.
