I love playing billiards at home for fun!
Billiards is another name for pool, right? I'm not very good at playing pool. 
It is! They also refer to it as "cue sports" but they both mean the same thing-a sport where a table on which billiards-type games can be played.
Okay, so I know you break, and then you're either solids or stripes, and then you try to get the 8-ball last, right? 
Yep! they call that "eight-ball." It's very universally known type of game.
Oh, so that's just one type of game. What other kinds of games can you play on a pool table? 
There's three-ball, but I'm actually not sure what the rules are. There's also Blackball, which is popular in Ireland.
Interesting! I had no idea there were other games. I thought it was all just "pool". Are there competitive pool leagues? 
Definitely! It's a very competitive sport. In the U.S., they have the Valley National 8-Ball League Association, which is one of the world's largest amateur pool leagues.
Oh wow, are there "pros" then in the sport?
