It cracks me up when these commentators say efren isn't the player he used to be..He's still the best player in the world..Pool requires good eye sight, and the ability to stand up, and swing your arm a bit..Efren has all that, plus the best intuition, and more knowledge than anybody..People are always so quick to announce someones decline when they get older..Theres Efren, and then theres everyone else.
He is the goat but not the best now. He hasn't won anything recently apart from growing admiration including mine
He is and always will be the Magician with his pool cue and being humble is a true sign of the best.. 1:05:31 1:05:31
efren is efren no matter what. win or lose in this game, efren will always be the GOAT
Mr. Reyes, please enjoy your retirement. You are always my idol and you are truly a GOAT on this game. 💝💝💝
I'm getting a little bit addicted to watching Efren play.. I like it. 😏
Hahaha mee too. If he quits I might not watch pool anymore. Or just rewatch all the accustat stuff.
Me too. I WATCHED MANY OF HIS GAMES ON TH-cam..MANY TIMES, SOME.OPPONENT SWEARIMG,.YELLING AND PUT HIM DOWN. OFTEN OVERNIGHT WATCHING HIS MATCH, I READ HE WAS THE TOP.PAID BILLIARD POOL, ALL OVER THE WORLD..WOW! THATS A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT SIR EFREN..! CONGRATS !
Always a pleasure to witness the Magician performance 🙌. Gives hope my game can improve.
I've always been taught to keep your eyes on the table. Do not change your focus, or cause ÿour èyes to have to adjust to differing light. Good advice.....
Obviously not in his prime, but to think at 68, Efren can still play at this level is remarkable. He’s probably still equal to, or an even better shot than 95% of the Pros who are half his age.
Scott mentioned he's been struggling with a shoulder injury that makes it hard to elevate the cue. That's probably why he touched the 3 ball twice. Couldn't elevate. He still plays well despite having a limited range of motion
@@404nobrakes Thanks man. Didn’t follow it quite that far, but one thing is often true… “Getting old isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.” 😉
I thought the magician was retired, we love him
He unretired like Michael Jordan did.
He's retired in major long tournaments probably there was a sponsor
You get a free master class in just watching Efrain
Mr. Efren Reyes - over 65 yrs. old
Gerson Martinez - about 27
I watched the game because of Efren Reyes. Grew up watching his matches on VHS. Lol😁
With the score of 7 - 9. With the age difference. I'm still a big fan of Mr. Morales (Mr. Reyes alias😁)
Mr. Efren Reyes is actually turning 69 this year. And yes with the age difference, Mr. Reyes still got the edge. I am also a big fan of him😊
yeah this player is routine for Reyes 9-3 result during his prime. Due to age, Reyes eyesight cant see and have issue with potting.
I've never seen a player that plays as much safe as Efren does he's fantastic rarely can go wrong with him still the killer
Wow magician is still in the game great to see him taking it on
“Obviously that side pocket is defective, we need to have it replaced immediately” 16:43
This Martinez is sure taking a lot of time walking around
Es fascinante ver al mago jugar, no me canso de ver todas sus jugadas,
I enjoy these commentators.
Gerson is jumping up and stubbing every shot like my bar pool buddy, it's a miracle that he got this far.
Con un señor q ya esta dando la última vuelta
Ya ese don no le gana a nadie de esos jóvenes ya su tiempo paso
Gffffffffff
Hey can you please explain what stubbing is? Beginner pool player here, thanks!!
I've played him a little and Gerson plays crazy strong when the pressure is off. 😅
Even he retire he always willing to fight the one who challenge him in the game
Efren never tries to kill a break. He want's predictability and he gets it.
I saw Efren jump once or twice using his regular and not a jump cue. I strongly believe he never owned one. 😀
Personally I think jumps shouldn't be allowed as they are against the spirit of the game and way too often provide relatively easy escapes and often lead to lucky results. But that's just my opinion.
I think someone gave a jump cue to efren as a gift but he returned it because he is having a hard time raising his arms and does not like to jump.
Never owned one cus he's not very fond of that jump shot. He's more about using everything except that
@@nortonisaac9985 he owned one like i said he gave it back. ☺️
Hopefully Gerson wins this tournament someday so he can afford the rest of those pants.
@@uriahotten3895
I find it very difficult to watch Gerson.
He is not a very relaxed player . . . whereas, to me, Efren is.
I don't hit thumbs up on a TH-cam upload when someone says to hit the "like" button. It's 2024. Everyone knows there a thumbs up to hit.
Contrary to the statement of commentstors at 2:19 time that they have not seen Efren do jump. There was a game i sae Efren Jump. In 2003 WPC against Oliver Ortmann, he did the Jump. Thats the only time i saw him use a Jump stick.
New subscriber. You do a good job...enjoyable viewing.
4:20 surprised me ... what a gift to see the table like that. To shoot that ball as hard as he did? Steve Carrell face cringe. Efren can do anything on the table.
Most times that I 420, something in this beautiful universe surprises me.
..didn’t know that Michael Caine would be a guest announcer..cool 😋
It would be a dream to play with bata, i dont think i could sit if i were playing to be that close to a legened and possibly miss anything he could teach would be tragic
There's a difference between semi pros & Efren. Efren doesn't walk around the table to see where he wants the cue ball for the next shot. He just knows.
That’s from experience
@@Danielle13522that's genius
But Efren lost, and Gerson is higher rated. 😅
These fellas said you're not allowed to rack the 2 ball at the rear & Efren done it on the 3rd rack.
Why is effern not allow to play 36:59
'My High Run is 132'
E.R.
The table seems to be not level enough. You can see the cue ball rolling when it shouldn't.
Efren still has it watching from canada , wish u win more god bless u Efren
Cannot win them all but this will not stop 🛑 the magician!
Good shoot,,,,,,,,
@28:04 good hurt
I saw him jump once in a video I was watching a year or two ago. I can't recall which video it was though.
nice
One of the commentators sounds like the Geico commercial lol
The older,the wiser.
Rather have no commentators than two that want to talk about if Gersons home town in Peru, while Efren is lining up a combo 9 ball shot.
Yes when you play someone so bad ,it's much harder to do
"he doesn't want to get straight. he defiantly doesn't want to be on the rail...I think he's both."
Nice
24:10 One Ball Willy...Lance Armstrong would like a word.
Holy cow this video is going viral!😮😮😮
@8:46 they said you can't put the 2 ball at the back of the rack, and Efren does it
Notice that too on the third rack
I saw the same thing and it had me wondering. Plus at first they said you could use a regular cue for jumping then later he said no jump shots at all. Which is correct?
El gran ponpas ganandole a una leyenda viviente
28:06 They way his brain works... Efren is playing his own game, parallel to whatever is on the table and he is alone there, lol.
noticed that too. He played that 9
@@archico01 yeah, and with inside too :). I might try to flirt with the 9 as well and hope for the best but he actually saw the exact way it's coming off of it and took an extra risk of extreme inside to end up in a perfect position.
Still my hero my kabalen The Goat
They have Only one legend in billiard and this is the pride of the Philippines
Efren Bata Reyes
a.k.a the magician
DID YOU KNOW: EFREN REYES was even banned from playing in some tournaments on account of him being too good. This led Reyes to travel to the United States in 1985. In 1985, at the start of his career in the U.S., he used the alias "Cesar Morales" to hide his identity so he would be allowed to compete unknown.
30:02
True, and he said his best play was in that unfilmed era. Imagine that.

Can u explain the 2 foul rule on the 3 ball plse..tia..interested novice..great to watch, even better if I can learn basic rules while watching...thanx
@@rangikaka4498 : Three foul rule. Typically due to safety play. Hiding the ball. Both object ball and/or neighboring or cue ball must touch a rail after touching the object ball. Upon failure to do so, the game is awarded to the player who played safe
The commentator talks about his diesel pants in every video.
how is dude not bored playing, i mean dominating pool for over 60 years
@yxgv, I think it shows his true love for the game. It's such a part of him.
Every time gerson misses the whole building, let's out a sigh of relief
the 69 year old body simply can no longer hold up as it did when younger no matter the skill/talent of the player.....the mind knows what to do but the body has other thoughts...though watching Reyes is still fun no matter what
It will be nice,if there's an arrow to show which ball is next during the match.Just a suggestion 😂
God bless Efren
Think the Fargo rate system needs a overhaul. Martinez can almost string 5 balls together and his fargo rate is just 20 point from Ko pin-yi which is a tournament winner and strings more racks together than Martinez strings balls ?
Wait a minute, they're talking about a 90 game competition between SVB and Dennis Orcullo and this is titled a 2023 game here between Reyes and Marinez? Has SVB played the Sharks long match twice with Orcullo? Is this game here really 2023? I'm confused.
I've seen this before, so I don't know
Efren Reyes is my idol..
Wow this Peruvian did a lot of walking!
老人になってからの
レイズの姿も、なぜか素敵だ
@4:14 pow!
Efren..The ( GOAT )...
In the third rack Efren put the 2 ball at the back of the rack. You did not explain why you can’t do that?
No, this event happens the end of January every year
Why does he not use a bridge....... I'm confused by that first match
Martinez is always walking and walking before and after shot😅
That paper template has to be the most annoying thing ever put on a table
How's the JCity No Concession Rule work? forfeiture of break if alternating break was next yours? Shoot the rest of the match blindfolded? lol
It upsets a lot sometimes to see a player to miss a straight shot like a highway.
efrain
14:45 what is going on right now? Then the safe attempt at pocket? smh Stop the slaughter Efren. 16:25 Efren like "no, I'm just getting started"
Actually there are videos on TH-cam showing Efren jumping three different times. Probably in my Efren playlist somewhere. His mastery of massé, using side pocket tit, and some of the weirdest English that few have ever figured out. I recall Rempe and Incardona utterly gob smacked by some of his manilulations of spin, draw, stun and follow with no explanation as to what he just did or how he did it. And I'm not just talking about the famous "Z" shot either.
42:44 that shot I've been told requires middle top, no English. It induces thereby clockwise (left) spin on the object ball so it rolls into the hole off the visible side of the pocket. If you attempt to use left spin of the cue ball to get better position, it will induce right or counterclockwise spin on the object ball and it will rattle in the pocket and not drop. Depending somewhat on speed or force used. I'm surprised Efren used any spin at all.
The best Efrén reyes 😊
Remember Efren doing a jump draw on a partially hidden object ball . ?not really a jump shot?
Win or lose he is still the GOAT. Still artful in his shots. Take into consideration his age, at 68, still goving these young guys a good scare and a possible loss, hahaha
Why does his wife enjoy all him money if he stays in the yard eating hay? Poor goat 😢
At his age he is my champion.
When I saw the score was8-6 Peru, I knew efren had lost this match…his eyes failing him the second time,maybe he should have been more rested for his match…..
🔝
I am watching Legend vs Amateur.
😂😂😂
I call him EFREN THE GOAT!
Efren was the goat.9 ball short rsce ill take strickland
Muy buen termometro para ratificar el alto nivel en el que estas en el mundo, felicitaciones por la ganada
Casi se te va la. Ultima mesa, despues de meter la 7, casi se te pega a la 8, menos mal a pesar que no saliste la metiste con todo el corazon de los que apretamos, de infarto ganarle a la leyenda EL BATA, EL MAGO, felicitaciones!!

Bata get a personal assistant man. You look 100 yrs old. The goat.
Arriba Perú 🍫🇵🇪🏆🐐🔥

6:00 you cannot place the 2ball in the back of the rack @8:34 the 2 ball is the back.
Efren Reyes is the GOAT IMO, Francisco Bustamonte is my second favorite player though. Makayla Tabb is the best ref.
I didn't appreciate Greason taking a lot of time on his shots, trying to wear down his opponent. (That's why they use a timer)! Just crappy pool ethics. Great match. 💖 The Magician! 💙🎱
He was definitely doing the most at the end of the match I hated it
*This was simply an off-tournament for Efren. We all have our up and down moments. Efren doesn't have them too often but this tournament was clearly one of his down moments.*
Very true. Yet, I'm a couple of years older than Efron. As time plays on our bodies and brains. We simply don't preform as well as we did when we were young. Like the athletes in any sports . You may be young now, and too young to comprehend what I'm telling you. My thoughts were the same as yours 60 years ago.
@@james1795 *Well I'm 59 years old, so that would make you about 120+ something years old. I'm impressed.* *But nevertheless, I use to be a top 10k, 5k, sprinter, marathon, and long-distance runner so there's no need to explain to me about the wear and tear of the body as we age.*
@@radicalrick9587. Thus.... you are full of shit. Just so ya know. HaHa!! And anyone who believes your BS story, falls in your same same category.
anyone know why Efren tapes his cue, theres other vids online of him playing and its not taped. obviously its a predator bk so the tape is like 🤪
Ahhh…Bata Reyes🎱🎱🎱🎱
Buena pompas buena bola 8 que metes felicidades le ganaste al más bravo de todos los tiempos sueño cumplido de ganarle a un bravo
come on one more lap around the table
We miss Carlo Biado in the table again
I am so sad because Efren lost this match.😭😢😢
Gelson donde vaya puede hablar lo que se le dé la gana , le ganó a el gran Efrén reyes . Soy colombiano pero ni arete , Chonerito, Raúl diaz , kuko , etc pueden hablar al lado de esto
Commentator back ball must not be the 2 ball very next rack efren puts 2 ball in the back of the rack priceless 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Efren would have played the 1>7 combo all day long.
Throughout the years I've been watching efren, be careful when efren stop smiling. Like what Strickland did back then. Just look it up.
Efren misses 3 balls on the same side pocket in 1 game...
yup, messy rack,, but awesome tho
I’m telling ya if you’re not trying the extra swing Efren does you should. I’ve been hitting the center of the pocket much more.
