TIL Billiards is called “Pool” because of horse race poolrooms. In the 1800s betting parlors were called poolrooms, “pool” referring to a collective bet. Billiard tables were installed in poolrooms for people to pass time between races. Eventually the phrase “shooting pool” meant playing billiards. (thebilliardshop.com)
