thanks! so: es un timador jugando al billar o en el billar??

Timador has the most agreement (Not necessarily only applicable to pool), but see this entry in that of someone from Peru, indicating that the actual literal translation of shark does not imply the hustle :

Es curioso, aquí en Perú justo se les llama "tiburones" a aquellos que jugadores profesionales que andan metidos todo el dia en los billares, apostando y retándose entre ellos.

Aqui no necesariamente son timadores

Another Peruvian opinion saying the same

En Perú es común llamar "tiburón" a aquel que juega muy bien al billar. No sé, no lo creo, que se refiera al embaucar a otros para ganar, sino solo a su buen dominio del juego.

Look at the whole link.
