“Am I going crazy? Isn’t there eleven balls on the table?” “Which question you want me to answer?” Perfect.
That was the comment of the match!

GOOGLE DUDE!, ABOUT POCKET BILLIARD!
Efren is the only man in the world in his sixties playing professional pool at this level.
I'm a neophyte in one pocket and thus my comment is so late. Best one pocket I come across. I would think some one could get a heart attack watching this match. When Efren came back snatching the game from Danny when he needed 10 balls and Danny needing 2, I yelp and hollered in appreciation of virtuoso play. But then the next game Danny came with a thriller. I kicked off my socks. I enjoyed it very much!
I was playing one pocket for some cash and a few people were on another table kind of sneering at us because 'we didn't seem very good' (probably thinking it was 8 ball) and it was actually kind of a good feeling when somebody watching told them 'well these two are the best players in the room and this is the hardest game to play in pool'. Sometimes it's nice being in the spotlight lol
This is the best one pocket match I have ever watched. It’s soooo good I’ve watched it probably 10-15 times. The play is great and the commentary is priceless. Love every second of this video. Thanks Accu-Stats, Pat, Billy, and Danny
This is certainly the finest one-pocket match I've seen. Both players were ON their best game.
Thank you, Pat.
This match was everything it was billed to be.
Love it.. I watch all your videos.. I am deeply into the game.. 1 pocket, 8,9 and 10 ball.. I watch very old pool to recent day action, daily!!
Efren Reyes is easily my favorite player, the Django.. the pearl, Grady Matthews, Ronnie Alcano, the mizz , aponcho.
Could you put together some whole tournaments in order, 9 ball and 1 pocket
Some day, some day.🙂
Great match. Just read that Efren came back and won the tournament the next day. Bata, baby!
“Boy, baby!” ????
@@coldpressedbrickrep Efren's nickname is Bata.
When svb is watching a match instead of practicing, something big is going on. This was a great match, Danny's confidence against the most ingenuinutive mind in pool, where did this guy go
FINALLY, a top level player that uses that vacuum cleaner looking cue extension. I've been using it for a long time and I really like it, super easy to install/remove, works on every cue I've tried it on, and never sloppy. I pop in on a little harder than he did, and just use a floor tap to remove it, but the shot he was shooting there was so gentle what he did was more than fine. I've even taken to breaking with the thing on, and it actually improved my break a good bit, power and accuracy...but I'm tall (6'3" and my hand wants to be 3-4 inches aft of the back of a standard length cue for breaking, especially when bridging fairly long.
I never saw that one before, really a good idea/smart design, do You know the name of the thing....?
From Danny's first break to Efren's first shot... that was a testament of how great this match was going to be.
Agreed!
@@AccuStats we need show
After reading your comment I had to watch the first two shots again, eventough I watch the whole match.
Usually when the title says "best ever" it is not. But here it's true. That third rack!
Hi no we
These commentators are better than the match
I have watched this match about 10 times. I love one pocket. Didn't start playing it until about 10 yrs ago. After you play it awhile, it's addicting. Now it's about all I play. I love listening to Billy and Danny, they give great insight to the game. Billy and Grady are great together also. Thanks Pat for posting all the matches.
You're welcome Don.
really? you love listening to two guys constantly dismissing (not merely disagreeing with) each other's ideas in a desperate need to appear to be the only one who knows anything, only to both be wrong about 75% of the time? i'd rather listen to two guys who know how to work as a team and actually like each other and respect each other's knowledge so that i don't have to listen to borderline bickering for two hours.
They are hall of famers you dope better listen and learn.
@@spartanical they are playing against each other from the booth
@@spartanical I agree about Bill. Danny might disagree but I don't think he's trying to put Bill down. Bill just seems to have such a huge ego that he nearly always has to put Danny's opinions down. He might be a great and knowledgeable player but he really comes off as a pompous jerk.
Wow what a rivalry, these two don´t budge an inch, they fight their corner in every single comment
I watched it for free but like Billy said, hell I'd pay double!
What a terrific match! If you wanna know the value of cue ball control and cue speeds, watch this.
Thanks for uploading the full video..
Our pleasure.
Great one pocket match. Very good commentary. Thank you!
Much appreciated!
What a match!!! That second game was absolutely brilliant by both players! This is my second or third time watching Danny and he’s really got a smooth stroke and has a very keen mind for one pocket. I really like this kid he’s gonna do well for many years! Efren man he’s the man what a phenomenal player he is! This was a great match for sure
Thank you to Accu-Stats for another great match!
Our pleasure!
What a MATCH ! Thanks for sharing this 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
That match was so awesome! Thanks for putting this up!
Fantastic match. Thanks guys.
Our pleasure!
I've never seen efren concede before the last ball was pocketed
If Billy says that it's the greatest match ever then I'm watching it very closely I might learn something Billy seen it all and been around it all plus I love hearing his stories
wow, i just learned more about pool in one match than watching 100 9 ball tournaments.

A beauty! Thanks.
Glad you like it!
Great match best 1pocket match ive seen
That rack efren ran 10 and out 😯
He didn't run 10 and out. He ran 4 and some innings later another 6.
woul love to see the final match of this event
I would recommend the accustats video of Efren vs Jason Miller in the finals of DCC.
Are there any videos on 3 cushion Billiard?
2:00:30 Cardone calls the shot. That’s why he’s one of the best pool commentators ever. Danny Boy had to execute it too. Well done.
I didn't even have to go back to your time stamp to know the shot you are talking about. "Shoot the stripe at the 2 and draw the rock around the 6 to the top left behind the 9..." That was great execution by Danny Smith and a great call by Billy Inc.
Please Accu stats, please upload Efren's semi-final and final matches from Derby city One pocket 2006. Please, please, please!!
Yes, in time we will.
♥♥ Thank you, Pat, for posting this great match!
Glad you enjoyed it!
efren's run that ends at 1:21:00 is absolutely amazing...
Beautiful match, absolutely amazing, however, I got to ask, what kind of cue extension is thát....???
I have no idea
He's making it Billy, no he isn't
Danny needs to wait until the balls stop moving.
You have to be a pool player to appreciate the cue ball controll of both players, the difficulty of freezing ball to another and/or to a rail.
This 1pocket not just a billiard but seems like playing chess🤦♂️🧠
And can I also say, that these videos are top notch 👍👍
Great commentary and very interesting to watch these masters work. Thanks again.
Glad you like them!
Wow one of the best matches ever
Another gem I would LOVE to see uploaded is Daulton/Reyes at the Legends of One Pocket. You know which one.
One of my favorites. In time, we'll get it up.
Maybe the finest match I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching. 👏👏👏
Great Match Pat, Thank You Much.
Glad you enjoyed it
There should never have an “arguably” when they’re referring to Reyes as the greatest
Great match. Doesnt get any closer.
Wow!!! One of the all time best matches! Two incredible players
Couldn't agree more!
And Efren, ever graceful in defeat. GOAT
But he won that tournament
Not really basically any player you talk to says he's passed at ya for a couple months after ya beat him.
@@gbh1913that’s normal bro take it your never cared about nothing in your life 😊
Great match ....but where is the FINALS of this 1-pocket event? And did I hear right that Reyes was in the finals?
Yes, and in time, you will see that too.
1:21 best I've seen magic, best young gun great match.
These commentators are high! I 've been looking at the dead 5 ball for 5 minutes, and neither one of them saw it!
Amazing!!!
Thanks!!
● ● Around the 11:40-11:50 mark in the video: "If they told me to make a ball or I'm going to the electric chair..."
Personally, I'd scratch the cue ball in the nearest pocket. LOL
commentators says.. efren is in trouble... then oh I thought he is trouble....😂😂😂😂
Whio is that woman sitting behind the shot clock partition ??? She showes up i so many Accu-stats videos ?
Gaming
gaming's d a
I'm guessing she's in charge of the shot clock lol
I noticed prior to each shot Efren was tightening his cue. That appears to be the Diveney cue he was using a few years ago at DCC. I wonder what kind of a joint pin it has. I don't remember seeing him do that before.
If I have a touchy shot I unscrew mine a turn and tighten it back just to make sure it hasn't jiggled a little loose or anything. Could also be a nerve thing
@@nickpatrick7021 I sometimes will tighten it just as a kind of nervous habit, probably picked it up from watching other folks... like Efren. Pretty sure that's all it is.
Epic match.
Where is Danny today? Never seen him play before.
Billy, Chicago misses you. Got any Cognocenti's for sale?
What a great match 👍👍
Yes it was
Best match I've ever watched... even when Reyes lost
1:13:23 How does that work? Efren owed two going into his inning, but only nine balls were up. What happens if a player pockets all nine that are out, but s/he needs one more to win? Does the player get a spot shot for the win?
thank you for uploading this, i really have been yearning for more billy incardona commentary after watching the old us open one pocket videos, he is an EXCELLENT one pocket commentator
I thought it was really awesome when I would watch them on Wednesday nights back in the day then when I went to the Expo and Pennsylvania and I met you Jay pool player Julie ha and Ed cohain .
I thought I was really meeting TV stars it was awesome
The greatest of all time !!
Great and crazy game
I threw a Penny at Danny’s head once. He didn’t know it was me
I like the one pocket, formal, it's like watching a couple of guys playing chess on a 5x10 tablle pitting there wit,against each other, to control the cue ball 👉😁😆
It's got to be hard to perform after they just introduced you as the greatest player of all time!
the narration was tense!
In
The 12 ball ( game 3) wasn't as difficult as they claim, provided natural shape.
I have only been watching one pocket for about 2 months. Already fallen in love with the game. This match was phenomenal. The cueball control from Smith was incredible.
These commentators arguing with each other... 1:24:04 "why are you laughin, I'm not even tellin a joke" LOL
efren had a tough back bank on the 9 with the last 3 balls and passed on it / that would have forced smith to maybe play defense instead of play offense
Take a shot evertime you hear... he left the bank.
Wow best match ever
Commentary at 1:23:55 amazing
Billy why r u laughing I'm not even telling a joke
Efren was tired. Smith underrated player
Wow!
I’ll tell you about the greatest one pocket match I ever saw.. It was 25 years ago, and my road partner was trying to get this one particular guy to play him some hole.. We waited for almost 2 weeks, and went broke waiting.. We had 83 cents between the 3 of us when he finally got the guy to play 9-ball for 300 a set, and he won 4 sets..
So, the guy is angry, and barks at my guy to play some one pocket $500 a game, and my guy accepts, then beats the other guy 27 games in a row for $500 a game.. lol.. I couldn’t believe it and I asked him why he didn’t at least let him win one game?.. He told me it’s best to just win every game, because the other guy won’t quit until he wins one..
Lol..
Just like always...freakin' Air-Barrel road players! I've busted many of them but never had an air-barrel shot at me bc I make em post! Money on the light!
@@KimbrellBrad
It was either that or call home for some cash… The guy never had a chance, anyways.. My guy was the first guy to win both the US Open One Pocket and US Open 9-Ball, so he was getting the cash, either way..
Which reminds me of another story about him and Toby what’s his name, who owned the Cue Club in LV.. He gave my guy 10-8 a month before my guy won the US Open One Pocket as an amateur, and nobody got more than one game against him.. lol..
Who was your guy?
@@howdy2496
He’s got the same initials as me..
@@jacobjones5269 Jeremy Jones?
That was definitely the best I've seen so far!
Wow, thanks!
Efren is a baaaddddd man!!!!!! GOAT!!!
😛 you the one bad
You the one bad! 🥶🥶
I don't think so Billy :)
Who won???
Danny Smith
1:19:45 WOW!! Amazing comeback
Great matches, no doubt, but Bill's commentating is "over-the-top I'm in love with Efren " are massively annoying.
One of the commentators may actually BE the smartest guy in the universe, but I had to mute the dialogue because he continuously felt the need to express it.
That is one annoying idiot that keeps babbling on and on... I muted as well...
I would concede against Danny not because he's better than me but because he takes soooooooo long to shoot. Pitter Patter let's get at er.
I think I never had the patience for 1 pocket. I tried a few times and I just couldn't stay interested in it.
Keep watching. It'll grow on you. 🙂
It depends on the day..
I just started playing one pocket before covid shut everything down. I was really getting into the moves an loving pool again
if one pocket isnt interesting to you, youre not playing it right---its not a defensive game
I don’t have the patience either. I played the game a few times and I would just purposely open up the rack a little just to get it over with. I like watching it being played though, especially with high level players.
2:13:44 Wow, I really thought he had it there.
41:16
9:48 why did Danny shoot that hard ???
Pl) 11
Nice enabling non-stream comments during live. Cant stand chats.
Why is it that Billy and Danny expose the inherent racism in one pocket? 34:52: it’s all about controlling Whitie!
Other than that, fabulous match. I’ve watched it often enough to get kicks from forecasting both commentators’ foibles and rejoinders
1:10:35 What is Smith sliding on his cue?
An extension needed for a shot he can't reach without it.
Some one tell these commentators which balls are what colors.
I've never seen such a screwball "pool" game. It makes absolutely no sense to me the way they played it.
Yea, nobody else likes it either. . . until they know how to play it. 😆
this is the premier thinking mans game on the pool table, demanding all the skills on the table be present and ready for use. Banking, banking multiple rails, with cue ball control, straight pool skills of working ball clusters, ball running, position play, and most important: patience. One has to have played many, many racks of pool to accumulate the knowlege to know what shot to take, where to leave the cue ball, how hard to hit the balls,and when to duck and play safe. When you have played enough pool with high quality opponents, then come back here and apologize for your statement of folly. It will take years to accumulate that kind of experience. I am 72 years old, have played one-pocket for 40 years. Hurry up, i don't have time to wait for you to catch up. I found this particular match sublime, so much thinking going on, so much experience of how to move the balls, and nobody overhit any shot. Precise ball striking and mystical cue ball control. So satisfying....This is not a APA eight ball league where most folks slam the balls with not much skill or forethought.
Very simple. choose 1 poket for yourself at racking end of table,opponent has the opposite pocket.Whoever makes 8 balls in there pocket first wins.other 4 pockets are neutral,the balls that go in these pockets simply spot back up after the inning.If you foul or scratch you owe a ball.
I am not familiar with this game :(
