Dom-jot was a game played with a ball and cue on a table with an irregular geometric coordination, similar to Terran billiards with certain elements of pinball. Rolling the terik into straight nines was considered an extremely skilled move in dom-jot.
Cortan Zweller was fond of dom-jot, as were Jake Sisko, Nog, and Leeta. (TNG: "Tapestry"; DS9: "The Abandoned", "Doctor Bashir, I Presume")
Jean-Luc Picard was stabbed through the heart by a Nausicaan during a quarrel over a game of dom-jot in 2327. This incident lead to Picard undergoing emergency surgery to receive an artificial heart. (TNG: "Tapestry")
In 2371, Benjamin Sisko learned from Jake's then-girlfriend, Mardah, that Jake was quite a dom-jot hustler. (DS9: "The Abandoned")
Dom-jot was also available in a computerized form. Jake Sisko played such a version of the game on a PADD in 2373. (DS9: "The Ascent")
In an alternate timeline, Jake Sisko spent much time playing dom-jot after his father died. (DS9: "The Visitor")
