I guess not many people know that Efren Reyes was a 3-cushion billiard champion back in the days. And so making multi-bank shots, while pocketing the object ball are normal for him but for many who are unaware of his skills, they get stunned and are amazed by his abilities that up to now, others still can't believe it thinking he just made a lucky shot! Yup he's the GOAT...
You don't fully control the angle after hitting so many rails, even if you are strong in 3 cushion billiards. So yes, it is to a large degree just luck. He maximized his chances, though, but it's not like he could repeat it consistently.
@@v1das007it is not a luck. Obviously you can’t accept reyes how good he is. I think you need to watch some of his matches with magic trick shot and he is doing it consistently.
He had to make contact, or he'd left earl with a ball in hand. No doubt EF is a SUPER BAD man, but let's be honest, just about any mid level pool player could've made contact with the ball. I'm not saying make it. Just contact🤷🏾♂️
They say imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Many have attempted this iconic pool shot but what is incredible is that Efren conceived and performed it to win the match.
I practiced this shot a few times just to learn it (without success). Three weeks ago in a game of 8 ball, I was presented with the same shot on the 4 ball that was hidden behind the 9. Shot it perfectly with the same english you show here. Que ball hit the rail first (maybe a millimeter or two from the 4), then hit the 4 without touching the 9 ball. The 4 ball hit the pocket corner, ratteled and stopped, blocking the pocket. Impressed the hell out of me and those watching. Thanks!
Looked like fun. I heard that Efren actually practiced this shot. He saw a neophyte who didn’t know you weren’t supposed to shoot those shots make it. Efren said he practiced the shot until he owned it. It’s the kind of shot that would really deflate your opponent.
@@sealewy7905 Actually that is how humble he is. He will just attribute it to luck rather than to say how good he is. And to be fair, in one of his Tagalog interviews, he said there's a lot of factors to consider on those shots and a lot can go wrong, so he says to make it needs some type of luck.
Im filipino and that's a 100% true... What a billard geniuos.. This aactually hes prime... That time, 9 ball is not popular here in the philipines... People played here 15 balls or straight balls... Nobody wants to fight him even the best of the best.. i remember just to have an oponent , in stright ball you have to shoot 61 right? Just to fought him all you need to shoot is 27... Anyone! He dont care if your a chanpion too or your the best in your region or city.. And still nobody wants to play with him...😂
@@ZenaidaAvelino Straight is what I learned to shoot first. You get one point per ball. You can shoot any ball on table calling the pocket. You shoot fourteen balls per rack leaving one ball on the table. You use the left over ball to carom the cue ball into the rack of fourteen balls. You do this over and over until you make the number of points agreed upon before the game. “Friendly” games usually go to 50 points. Tournament games go up to 150 points. Safeties are a big part of the game as is the ability to make multi-rack runs. Playing 61 is good training for straight pool (also called 14:1). Living in PH now, and I find all the players here much better than I am. The best I ever saw play straight pool was Willie Mosconi, and I would have payed to see Efren and Willie play.
nice Jasmin, thanks for sharing this...am a Filipino and love playing billiards as a hobby...love your appreciation to my fellow countryman Efren :) ... Goodluck to your future tournaments - beautiful and talented Jasmin...
1995 that is his time of thrill in playing, Efren loved to watched beginner players than the amateur players,He studied those lucky shot and put it in into reality.
I too made a ‘Z’ shot … It was while a friend and I were practicing at a new pool hall … BUT it was not on camera or in front of spectators or a world wide final or HILL/HILL … and with proper shape/Speed … Efren ‘Bata’ Reyes is the GOAT …
That Z shot was amazing, truly magical. To do that against Strickland, under that much pressure, shows how good Efren really is. Earl looked astonished and genuinely pleased for Efren at the end. Nice job recreating it 👍
The chance of pocketing a shot like Efren did, two opposite banks first, with the added complexity of having to add some side spin due to a partially blocking ball, is ridiculously small. You have three factors that have to line up perfectly for the object ball to even go in the direction of the pocket. The direction of stroke, the side spin applied to avoid the first blocking ball, with hopeful consideration in clearing the second blocking ball and the strength of the stroke. Doing it as a one off on a hill-hill match was just absolutely insane. Big ups to Jasmin for getting the shot replicated in less than ten attempts. Many have tried and most had to do a minimum of 30 to even get the ball rolling along the rail
I think its videos like these which really make me rethink the way I perceive pool. Before watching, I would have never even thought that Efren's shot was possible let alone recreatable in so few attempts. Every shot after had multiple solutions whereas my mind could only see one or two. Its incredible how many ways you can really take a simple shot to play a table to your advantage, its something I still don't have and I imagine is going to be something I'll have to learn in order to reach the higher levels.
OMG I've NEVER seen anybody make that Z rail shot but Bata. In fact I've never seen anybody but the GOAT make it even after thinking about it. After only FOUR tries??? WOW!!! I need to start practicing again I've had eye trouble for quite some time(I'm 81 years old now).Again well done!! 😀😀😀😀
I have learned more than I did by watching your games on TH-cam,I play APA for 12 yrs,but after 4 yrs not in the game,I joined a team FL,oh the pic here is my daughter, anyway I have picked up a bit back, blessings to you,you are a awesome player
ER have seen and practiced this shot a million times while cutting class in the Philippines. As MJ said, If you practice enough, everything comes easier during a live match. You've done the hard work praticing, believe me- Efren Reyes did the hard work before becoming the GOAT. Hard work, determination, experience and the "gift" makes greatest of all time people.
While you have to figure the amount of spin you have to do on hitting the first rail, the biggest dilemma here is that Efren was doing this on a competition. That will tell you that Efren is really a GOAT!!!
Nice video again ! I will try that on Virtual Pool 4 !! hé hé ! By the way, could you give us an update on your professional activities please ??!! Thank you very much. Your channel is my favorite of all !
Yet another AMAZING video, Jasmin! Thanks for taking the time to put this together and sharing with us minions. I do like how you used the 2-rail shot off the 7 to the 9, which goes against the "conventional wisdom" of coming ACROSS the shot line. But you're such a distance from the 9 ball you're coming across the wide part of the zone, and thus speed control (such a critical issue for we amateurs) isn't as big a factor. Great stuff! 😁👍💪🤩
Great replication. I used to practice this z shot ONLY to make a hanger in the corner. It's not too difficult, if you know the table. But the "Efron z shot" is way more difficult! Nice to see you do it.😊
Congratulations on making the shot in 9 tries! Good video. Another nuance is efren made this shot without the benefit of knowing where on the cushion to hit the rail. Whereas in recreating the shot one has the advantage of knowing what part of the rail more or less to hit by reviewing the video.
Great video! Last week A subscriber of mine requested I do this shot.so I did ,don't remember the exact number of attempts,but less than 10. I have several of the goats 🐐 shots on my channel
Hi Jasmin..you have my respect as one of the best wooman pool player.. In my case.I do that z shoot but try 147 times and probably never doit 2 times..good bless you Jasmin
Hello. Nice to meet you. I have a question. (I don't understand English so this is a machine translation.) What do you think about intentionally increasing the humidity during a match? Should players deal with rollercoaster humidity changes or should the venue provide optimal humidity control for play? Thank you, I appreciate it.
Efren was talking about this shot with SVB in a video. I think he said it was a 1/20 chance to sink it. He knew it was a difficult shot but he had no choice.
I played this shot in a tournament and made it (9-ball on 9ft diamonds). Nobody batted an eye, and I’m just like guys come on, I just made the Efren Z shot
Efren did not practice the same shot over and over again. There is no take 2 3 and 4 and so on. It's a one in a lifetime shot. He did it once and it's a masterpiece!
It's crazy to know how good he is...if you are as good as you are Jasmin and it was hard for you too. I tried this too as a player coming up to 600 and I give up after 20 tries or so and just feel like it is too difficult to ever try to make a ball. In reality I would only do this as a last ditch attempt to make contact.
Plot twist: Efren knocked the eight out on purpose. The positioning of the five and the lifting of the cue ball to six are the clues he left behind. He left the cue ball behind the six just in case he missed the eight. He hit the five hard enough to get near the diamond, but not to rest on the rail. If he would've simply tried safety with the z-shot, he would've landed on top, or on the other side of the five. so, he was potting that five on the Z. That was not a fluke. The eight was not a sure shot, but the Z was.
Very nice demonstration. And another historical moment from same match, for me al least it is, Strickland holding Efren's arm up in triumph, isn't that so cool
We can do , what Efren Reyes did , every games that our idol done in his previous games, after how many tried , but what we cannot do is , how quick we are to solve a plane geometrical issues like Efren Reyes.
Creating the shot is hard enough, but doing it in a big tournament in front of live audiences under pressure with a huge money on the line is even more harder.
Sweet. My Z shot moment came at the worse time. I needed to make a good hit on a tougher version of this shot to win a competitive APA 8 ball match. When the ball went in, it forced to me to break out the 8 that was totally tied up in a corner with another ball with no way out. A great shot lost me the game/match. Pool be like that.
Congrats Jasmin!! I feel though that we have to consider couple of things before we start trying to replicate magician's famous shot. I saw you trying to replicate exactly the aiming point, the spin and the speed of the shot. Well, dear Jasmin, as you already know, everything (even slight things) on a pool table can make a difference on the final outcome. Let's start: Efren was playing on a Brunswick table (version 3) and you are playing on a Predator (?) table. The cushions are different and respond differently even if you execute exactly the same shot (first factor). Your cloth is different than his (yours is quite new meanwhile his was not, perhaps even you use a different kind of cloth than him, factor 2). You 2 are playing with totally different equipment (you with carbon shaft, he with wood) which means that if you apply exactly the same amount of spin and speed as he did, you will have a totally different result cause these 2 types of shafts play completely different (factor 3). I will keep going for a bit...🙂. Tables and clothes are very sensitive to temperature and humidity levels, so it's quite impossible to replicate exactly these 2 important factors. This shot is legendary cause i bet even Efren if he would try to replicate it, probably he would have potted 3/10 times on the same table, with the same cloth, on this same room. It was just a moment of magic where aaaaaaaaaaaall the factors collaborated harmonically to provide us this pool masterpiece!!! That's why it's magic!! Stay safe dear and keep pushing Albin to find his form, lol. I am a super fan of both of you!!! Your's and Albin's style reminds me the great Ralf which i love too!!!🙂
There are so many z shots and and even 4 rail shots in competition after theis famous shot but I have not seen another L-shot (against Chao Fong Pang).
Now THAT is the Jasmin we all knew was hidden and the passion now let loose for all to see. You are a lovely woman Jasmin, even more so when you let her out. The skill and precision of a Nikki Lauda with the passion of a Franz Klammer coupled with the graceful power of a Steffi Graf. Enjoy your work young lady, keep stroking, it is only a matter of time before you burst to the forefront of the sporting world. Just remember, when you do, bring the pool world with you...
