Essentially yes -the cues are the same for snooker and billiards.

As far as i know when snooker was played for the first time the cues were held at the opposite end and the balls were pushed . The cues were slightly curved at the end that we know as the butt.

Yes, very good. Alot of top professionals use Jian Ying cues.
I would answer by saying that it is a matter of personal preference. However, my belief is that a tip size of between 9mm and 11mm is the ideal range for a snooker cue and will produce the best results for the discerning player.
