Lies used by snooker players? (5)
I believe the answer is:
rests
'lies' is the definition.
('rest' can be a synonym of 'lie')
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rests that I've seen before include "Relaxes, sleeps" , "Reposes" , "Takes one's ease" , "Relaxes; supports" , "Pauses; relaxes" .)
