  I really dislike asking people to contact someone or some place else
for information, but.....

http://www.proz.com/glossary-translations/spanish-to-english-translations/133

gives the following translations for billiard terms

Billiards: Straight, Balkline, One Cushion, Three Cushion and Pin Game

      Billar: Libre, Cuadro, Una Banda, Tres Bandas y para Cinco Quillas

      The terms were provided by someone named Cindy Chadd, whose contact
information is available here.  http://www.proz.com/?sp=mailsend&eid_s=15969

Maybe she would be able to provide more help.
