When somebody says snooker & pool they do not mean swimming pool !!!!?

Question

Surely that makes sence. Playing snooker and pool!!

Answer 1

Typically, putting the words snooker & pool implies that you are discussing games centered around a stick, table and balls.

If it is snooker and swimming pool, you should state there will be snooker, pool and swimming.

snooker tables are wider and longer but it is just a pool table.
