Anyone can point me to any info regarding physics of a snooker game, if possible more about the ball colisions? I would like to make a game and I need some help about the physics...
thanks!

There's a book online about this,
"Amateur Physics for the Amateur Pool Player" by Ron Shepard (PDF Link)
I haven't read it but I've heard it's good for game developers.

Carom3D is a great one, they seem to have mastered the physics. See these links for more info:
