@55vadamee i think yang has already passed his prime. he started playing professionally since maybe 1996 at the age of 16 or so to take the Osaka Open. then he make a pretty big name for himself all the way till the last 2 years.
@55vadamee It was not so much that his abilities plateaued but his lack of desire to continue to be a professional pool player held him back. In the past 5 years he has announced retirement twice (he just recently came back from retirement for a year). It's hard to make a living off pool and I certainly do not blame him to want to explore other paths in life, but I would love to see him end his career with a world title. Yang is full of natural talent, he just needs to be mentally strong!
Not one of Efren's better performances thus far, but then, both players are making mistakes that can probably be attributed to slick new cloth? The contest makes some up in terms of suspense, though, starting to wonder how this is going to end. Thanks for uploading!
@ireallyhatenoobs efren is one of a kind, seems to have every aspect of the cue sport down plus he has a HUGE heart. he's also not scared to try different things like learn a new game or travel to a place where he can't understand the language well - like he did in the US. yang got comfortable playing in Asia, and had too much to worry and can't seem to focus on improving his game..
@tzytnt2007 These are pretty much standard at national and international amateur championships (e.g. EPBF) and professional open tournaments (WPA), though - no different from what these guys are used to playing all the time.
@vincentwu That's really a pity. That's a problem for young players in every sport. They start off exceptionally strong for the first few years, and then they plateau for the rest of their lives.
Certainly not a stellar game for either player. I am a huge reyes fan but I will say this. I just watched a video here in which Chin-shun played a practically flawless rack against Bustamante. Give the kid a few years more experience and I think he will be pretty close to the top.
@LeonFleisherFan the commentator said the pockets are specially designed so that they hold only 1.8 times the size of a normal ball instead of 2, that's probably one of the reason that makes the game harder.
還是不敢相信你離開的事實，總覺的你還在，很喜歡你在球場上的殺氣，快狠準的球風，可惜再也看不到了😢
遠離病痛了一路好走😢

@ireallyhatenoobs same, as simple as 9 ball position play concepts can be.. i always seem to pick up a trick or two from watching efren play a match
