Actually, snooker(ed) is also used in the UK, with the same meaning as in the US.  My British friends used the verb, on many occasions, during my visits.

But then, they are mostly Street Arabs . . . Baker Street Irregulars . . . transforming nouns to verbs without thought or care.

BTW - Is Trump progressing in the tournament or has defeat befallen him, there, too?
