I'm very impressed by the professionalism of Roger. He had no lame excuses and accepted his weaknesses in this game. He's a good player and he should feel proud that he did beat Efren a couple of times. Efren, of course, the GOAT, humble yet dominant and fun to watch. Thank you Accu-Stats for these videos, the best for sure.
I was so confused when it appeared out of nowhere :). Seems like it has nothing to do with the text on that banner, somebody simply decided it's a cool background.
@@Krushard Yeah well, the Mandelbrot set looks very cool. I would be willing to bet that there aren't many people out there who know what we are talking about. I wonder if Pat Fleming does?
@@AccuStats Hey Pat. When are you guys going to upload the 1987 Peter Vitalie tournament? That one is awesome. I wish the controversial match between Efren and Sigel was filmed. At least you have the final filmed on those tight tables.
I don't usually like watching 8 ball. I prefer 9 ball for sure. I really enjoyed this one though. Maybe it was the commentators, or maybe just the way the racks fell. Idk. Either way, thnx for the upload!
Efren Manalang Reyes ("Bata" - meaning “the kid”) arrived in the US during the 1970s and won his way into pool history with a $14.00 Chinese manufactured pool cue he bought in Japan just before he arrive here…. I have played Efren a few years ago he is still a very, very great player!!!!! AND he still plays with a NO NAME cue!!!!!!!!
I really liked it myself. So easy to spot on the table and no way to confuse it with any other ball, especially in the days of standard definition television.
Sketchy, yes. But I feel it was a legal shot. He applied left hand english on the cue ball, so the cue ball cut off the object ball in time. If he applied right hand english, it would definitely been a foul.
Yeah, I would bet that if you slowed it down, there would definitely be a double kiss. Even with low left, It was too close to the object ball. Great shot though.
@@AccuStats I can't believe you're saying this. There is no way in the world you can hit that shot with a low ball & still go fwd to the rail & back out around the 5 ball without a double hit which he clearly did. look at it again & think about it.
You can tell reyes went from barely able to afford to eat in the early 90, ( he was so skinny) to eating well in the early late 90s. Lol all that money he was making.
Incardona's rambling chat is so disruptive...... I know of noone who cares what he would have done. He is has been, announcing a game of players way above his game. An announcer should be like a reporter.... observe and report what he has see. Did Howard Cosell ever tell Ali how to fight, or which punch to throw...... Bill is the worst excuse I have ever had to listen to.

Great video. Thank y’all for continuing to post these.
More to come!
I see the Mandelbrot set quite a bit on these videos. I guess I'm not the only one who loves pool and fractals.

Maybe that design was chosen because it loosely resembles a cue striking a ball.
RIP Roger.
Great match
efren is a monster.... in his time.... but very humble person.... love yuo koyang efren... kaluguran daka....
Interesting match thnx. For the upload
Glad you enjoyed it

Sorry, but we did not have anything to do with that event.
@@AccuStats Oh okay. I have an old VHS Accu-Stats tape of the tournament highlights with the finals. I thought maybe you guys still sold that.

At least he never gave an excuse, he knows how to accept a loose .
Commentators made this more interesting, than it really was...thank you commentars!
Thanks for uploading! Who is racking? She is stunning.
1:01:07 His name was Teddy KGB and he was played by John Malkovich.
The rack lady is something. Surprised Sardo didn't sell more racks! I still have mine.
Efren is pure class.
👽 thx. 4 vid.

Good old Scott “The Shot”!
Efren is KING OF POOL ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
GOAT
Ah yes, simpler times. Better times.
Efren é o melhor
39:47 I wonder if he ate it? 😂😂😂
great match! not a fan of the zebra 8 ball however. thank god that never took off
OH! I wished it did.☹😃
@@AccuStats agree completely, sometimes the 8 ball can be hard to see, especially in low-light settings
I really liked it myself. So easy to spot on the table and no way to confuse it with any other ball, especially in the days of standard definition television.
Agree with you on the zebra 8 ball.
Love the zebra 8 ball
Whose the older commentator. He is the best
Poor Griffis. Soon as he walks about they spend 5 minutes just shitting on the guy.
isnt this already posted 1 years ago?
No. They played twice in that event.
@@AccuStats Nice!
I really appreciate being able to watch this match. But FOR GOD SAKE'S they kept beating "was that a foul" to death! STF UP!
The shot 15:15 is a little sketchy...just saying
Sketchy, yes. But I feel it was a legal shot. He applied left hand english on the cue ball, so the cue ball cut off the object ball in time. If he applied right hand english, it would definitely been a foul.

clearly a foul. can't play that shot today for sure
R.I.P. Roger Griffis
Didn’t you guys already upload this match a few months ago? 🤔
That wasn't this finals
@@chriscripplercruz1833 what do u mean?
No, they played twice in that event.
Efren is the greatest of all time !!!
You two need to put the gloves on! Damn.
min 39:38 the guy in the background playing one pocket
Efren must have had to buy a warehouse to house all his trophies
Filipinos in bars will say you lost the game after shooting a straight in 8-ball if you don't call the pocket.
Roger had to be the reason the shot clock was invented.
Negative, Jonny Archer
commentators like these two ruin the game. they keep on proving who has the right and wrong prediction every single shot, especially the younger one.
What a horribly obvious foul at about the 15 minute mark
i think a shot on 15 is a foul... if you hear the sound... its a double kiss...
Big BOI! (Boy)😮😅
You can tell reyes went from barely able to afford to eat in the early 90, ( he was so skinny) to eating well in the early late 90s. Lol all that money he was making.
One reason is he also quit smoking.
He took horrible shots the whole game and made it harder on himself. He definitely could've played better.
That was a foul.

It's clearly a foul..but it's no penalty.. hahaha
First
Just like a woman, all bust, no balls!😢
this game needs a time clock
This game was 20 years ago, dopey.
This Roger Griffis didn't what he was doing.
Billy incardona's commentary partner is so annoying lmao Billy and Grady are the best combo ever.
i was there.
