Definition of Snookers Required

Snookers Required is a billiards slang term that is a part of Snooker Terminology.

Snookers required is a snooker term used to reference a scenario in a snooker game whereby there are not enough points available on the table at that time in order for the losing player to catch up with the winning player for that frame. This causes the losing player to require his or her opponent to commit a foul or multiple fouls in order for the losing player to make up the deficit. The term snookers required comes from the premise that for the losing player to even the score, the leading player would have to be placed in such foul-eliciting situations such as snookers that are difficult.
