How would you describe the act of playing pool?

I can't figure out hoe to word the actions and considering I barely know hoe to play pool, I'm stuck. I need it for something I'm writing in the first person.

    Pool is considered a sport and is a game of skill that requires a very keen sense of eye/hand coordination.It is also mentally challenging in that it takes a high level of concentration and the cerebral capacity to assess and execute an offensive and defensive strategy simultaneously. While it is not a particularly taxing sport physically, it does require a fair amount of energy to be alert and at your best when you play multiple or long sets. It is more of a drain mentally which can be just as exhausting as doing something physical.

    Pool actually does take skill..... if you are good at calculations you should be good besides the fact that first you must get good at power,accuracy, and dynamics.
