Sinuca brasileira is a Brazilian cue-sport variant related to snooker. A standard game uses one red ball and six colored object balls, together with a white cue ball, rather than the fifteen reds used in full-size English snooker. The colored balls carry increasing values from yellow through black, and players score by potting balls in the required sequence under the rules of the game. It is played primarily in Brazil.
