Is a snooker cue bigger than a pool cue?
Answer: The primary reason why the cues differ is because of the size of the cue ball.

The typical snooker cue ball measures 2 1/16 inches in diameter.

Why do you chalk a snooker cue?
Answer: You have the tip of a snooker cue and the cue ball; but they're not the components that are in contact with each other. The application of chalk creates a barrier between them that increases the friction upon contact of the two surfaces. It's primarily used when playing a shot off the centre of mass i.e. sidespin.
