The sulking at the end by CJ was uncalled for. It's really not too difficult to be a gracious loser and to have the common decency to shake a referees hand that's been totally fair
CJ explained recently that he had been flustered/annoyed before starting because they changed the match time from 9pm to 7pm without telling him. He only found out minutes before the match and didn't prepare as he was used to. The organizers had told Efren, but not CJ. CJ said he couldn't shake it during the match and let it get to him.
@anitamiller7960 He didn't even do anything. You are all taking this way out of proportion. It's not like he made an ass out of himself. He simply wasn't happy. Show me someone who likes losing and I'll show you a loser.
Man.... 1994 & 1995 Efren Reyes was simply FUN to watch. Considering his "Prime self" was in the early 80's before they started video taping these great matches, we'll take these. 👍👍 His table IQ was always a Huge advantage in close matches, all the others he usually won by a landslide. 🐐
@@tgh223 🤣 not at all. I had two ways I could go when I saw it. Sarcastic, adding to the social media flame wars of 2023 or consider the era and go with "appreciation" - yeah that's it, appreciation. He now plays with a cowboy hat on so....lamenting the mullet.
Eften had to beat CJ because that mullet just had to go!!! Seriously though, CJ plays fast and loose so unforced mistakes are inevitable. Efren is the G.O.A.T period!
1:02:41 stroke is incredibly powerful & he may be the fasted on your. His follow acks like it's supercharged. He is certainly entertaining! entertaining l!
As the commentator's said Wiley was unhappy before the match even started because of the changed start time then he had to complain about Efren swapping cues, maybe he should have concentrated more on the game
cj was upcoming around this time like Rodney Morris were. both phenomenal players. CJ and Efren will grow to respect each other's game through time as they played each other later on. EFREN is LEGEND
That’s the reason why he’s the goat, he can capitalize opponent’s errors. Aside from that, he has some magical shots that no one else does in actual game.
The pressure of playing against Efren is what makes players miss and make certain mistakes. He is still the reason for them making mistakes even though they make them themselves
CJ played hell of a set there…one of the best ever. I thought playing that fast was at a disadvantage…should have slowed it down just a touch. But good match. Efren is unreal.
Happens all the time especially in bar league pool. Person sitting in the chair watching the opponent run out unscrews the shaft in your line of sight. Intention is to shark you. Most places rule that if you break down your cue you are essentially conceding the game.
@@jeffren70 if my opponent were to do that, with the exception being changing a broken or defective shaft, I would stop shooting and go shake his hand and say good match. If he/she argued that the match was not over, I would not shoot again until it was clarified that the opponent conceded.
Wiley pushed out and was heading back to his chair, but Reyes forfeited his own shot so Wiley continued. The commentators were so busy bumping their gums they completely blew this for the viewers. Too much jabber-jawing.
Him and Rodney Morris own a pool hall in Georgia I stopped by it on my way to Florida it was right off the exit it was nice we took a few pictures in front of the giant American flag they have in the back I wore my army hat and we took a few
No, it is not. Think about why the pros (and myself) carry 4, 5 or more ends and shafts in their cases. Sometimes one just isn't feeling right, tips off, weight feels different, etc. Switching cues also changes the dynamics in a match if you're losing or just not feeling right...keep pocketing !!
CJ had a style very much like Earl, fast and loose with an incredible ability to pocket balls. I still think Earl was the best ball pocketer that ever lived. Efren won this match because of just a few missed balls on CJ' part and I dont care what anybody says, thats what makes a champion.The ability to consistency capitize on your opponents errors. This wears the person down and puts tremendous pressure on them.
In total agreement about The Pearl. Yes he shot quickly, but he seemed to size up the layouts faster than others. Then his shot-making would take over and he was nearly unstoppable at times...my fav.
On any given day the top 25 ranking player's can deliver a memorable perfection game capable of beating anyone. Consistency is the key to greatness. Efren has the most answer's to pool problems. IMO.
He rolled out after the break. His strategy there was to get into a position where he could execute a jump shot with a good degree of confidence if Efren gave it back to him, which I believe he did. Rolling out after the break is one of the things in 9-ball that requires knowledge and an understanding of your own abilities. Choosing the right roll-out is not easy to do and is very underrated.
The blank stare Wiley gave as he shook his hand is a huge tell about the guy. More mad at himself for popping up the cueball on a simple draw back shot. But they were at 11 - 9 so he had plenty of chances to win it.
Taking your cue apart is an old dirty trick to play with your opponents mind to make him miss his shot. It's one of the many "sharking" moves. If you want to change a shaft or something you should do it during your turn or between games. You can also let your opponent or ref know that you are going to do this to be safe.
Right, there's no other reason for him to do it in the middle of his opponent's inning. He could do it when he gets the break again and the ref is racking the balls. I didn't know Efren was like that.
Efren has done this for 40 years, you can see him change shafts on many matches. It's how they do it in the Philippines. Stuff like that is no big deal there.
@@nickp4793 Sure you can change shafts or do whatever you want when it's your turn. I have never seen a pro do that shark move, ever. He absolutely knew what he was doing because he was about to lose the match, and it worked.
@@sdickinson5234 I understand what you are saying, believe me, and I know that is 100% the culture in the States. Where Efren is from they simply don't care about little stuff like that, and no one there would have even blinked if Efren did the same. I don't think he meant it as a shark at all. IMO:)
Really weak mind need and excuse,,, much as Mike S & Earl Strickland talk trash during games,,,,M Fats & Others Pros ,, shut Up & let your pool stick show your skill on the table.,, weak minds need & excuse ,,, show me on the table your skills that it crying ..& choking under pressure.,, Weak MINDS,, MY humble opinion
These announcers really love Wiley. Lol Not much to say about one of the greatest players to ever play the game. Praising a guy who crys to the refs cause Efron changed his shaft on his breaking cue. He was pissed, ran off while being racked to complain to the judges. What a pansy. But his mullet is spectacular.
Seems as though Efren was playing two matches there. Only when his victory was almost certain that he got the approval of the commentators. CJ was clearly their automatic winner. Why didn't they do the TV interview with the winner? Ummm!
Archer says at about 39:45, "I don't think Reyes changed his shaft intentionally??!!" Can you do it unintentionally? Like if you're sleepwalking? The hell is he mumbling about?
To say changing the shaft mid macth is illegal to try to win is ridiculous. Equipment malfunctions. Imagine people automatically losing if their tip broke on thier cue. It would be outrageous. Of course you can change your shaft or tip if needed. Cj waa just trying to get efren out of his rhythm and focus because he could tell the tide of the match was changing and efren was on fire.
Efren did that on purpose. He changed his shaft on purpose to throw off his opponent. The game isn’t just about what’s on the table. Efren accomplished what he needed to
C.J was not on his best mood to play since the start of the game. He was mad about the change of the game time, which affected his focus and overall performance.
CJ was too loose and way too over confident. Efren Reyes was too tense and defensive minded. Yes, he won but this approach has bitten him on the butt throughout his career. When I looked up Efren I was shocked to see one 9-Ball championship and one World 9-ball championship. People keep saying he’s the greatest of all time but how is this possible when Earl Strickland has a staggering five US 9-ball championships and three World 9-ball Championships. Someone with an unbiased opinion please explain to me how Efren is better than Strickland.
This was in the article posted may of last year Over the years, there have been many outstanding pool players and pool tournaments, resulting in some of the greatest players of all time.😊 #1. Efren “Bata” Reyes If you ask anyone who is the greatest pool player in the world, Efren Reyes is the most well-known and top-ranked player. He is also considered the best pool player in the world. He has won over 100 professional tournaments and has earned over 80 international titles, earning him the nickname “The Magician.” What makes Efren so amazing is that he was the first player to win the World Championship in two different categories. He also is a 4-time winner in the WPA 9-ball championship and the World 8-ball championship. Other outstanding achievements include being a 3-time U.S. Open Champion, 2-time World Champion, and 13-time Derby City champion.- ctto, posted may 2022
@@crochetcornermd9182 I don’t believe your information is correct. This is what I see in the records annual with respect to Efren Reyes. In 1999 he won the World 9-ball Pool Championship by beating Chang Ping. He won the 1994 U.S Open Pool Championship (formerly the U.S 9-Ball championship) by beating Nick Varner. In 2004 he won the World 8-Ball championship by beating Marlon Manalo. In comparison Earl Strickland has FIVE US 9-Ball Titles and THREE WPA World Nine-ball Championships. Way too may to list years and opponents.
If "greatest" means titles won to you then your the type of guy who'd bet on Mayweather vs any other boxer that can outperform him past present or future. What is it with titles anyways?
@@scottisitoro3953 LOL, I guess so. It's just that Earl seemed to compete better at 9-ball and another, I forgot which one. But he didn't dominate in One-pocket and 8-ball, etc.
These announcers just need to STFU and stop trying to predict was Efron is going to do. He does the total opposite. Just shut up and comment after the shot was made.
CJ Wiley is the worse player but can get your nerve. If you underestimate him, he will get his "luck". Greater player but with mental problem will be easily lose to this type of opponent. But Efren of course not only great but also mentally stable, the "luck" of his opponent didn't affect him and still playing his best.
Reyes should have lost the game when he unscrewed his cue. Wiley did not know it was other than his playing cue. Makes no difference, he lost the frame, it interrupted the flow of the game. The ref was wrong. Not to shake his hand? Wiley was wrong. Humans make mistakes and i suspect the ref learned something thst day.
C.J was not on his best mood to play since the start of the game. He was mad about the change of the game time, which affected his focus and overall performance.
Weird to see these 30 year old matches with players seated, what, 5 feet away from each other? Much prefer todays chairs way across like in boxing !!!Mano-a-mano...keep pocketing, players.
Everybody talks about Efren Reyes, and then CJ Wiley talks like he is a monster player.......NEITHER COULD HANDLE ANY OF THE TOP PROS TODAY.........they would need weight........period.
I agree with you, but Efren kind of did take the game to a different level and made everyone better. If not for an Efren Reyes today's players wouldn't be as skilled as they are. But these guys can do everything Efren could, plus they figured out the break and can jump with ease and accuracy.
Awesome match, could you guys kindly upload the exhibition match between Willie Mosconi & Jimmy Carras? :) Have seen a few clips, but it would be awesome to see the full match and it would also be a nice way to honour Willie in the run up to the Mosconi Cup. Thanks again guys, you rock.
I got the 8 from CJ one afternoon in Affton Billiards for 20 a game I had him about 6 games stuck when the house pro came in and asked me what I was doing. I said robbing this sucker with a spray painted pool cue for $20 a game He said that’s CJ Wiley and you need more than the 8. And that’s a spray painted Balabushka he’s playing with I told CJ his action was queered played till we were even and kindly quit him
I love these older matches
Nothing can compare it, and the reason I stop watching pool tournament because Efren retired as well as the old timers.
I like the playing style of the old players, they play without much thought, it's really crazy, full of art
The older players could calculate the possible shots and outcomes much faster. They didn't stare at the balls hoping they would change colors 😁😁😁
I've done what CJ did @ 4:04 before. It's one of the most irritating and embarrassing things you can do while playing.
It's only embarrassing around non-players who don't realize everyone, no matter how good nor how well they're playing, does it.
Great match, great shooting, excellent commentary, great camera work. Thanks for the video!
I love you and Tyler alloy

Disassembling your playing cue during a match is ruled as an automatic concession and loss of match.

EFREN RULED DERBY IN 2000'S TO EARLY 2010 LOL😂😂
I agree with you, but Efren kind of did take the game to a different level and made everyone better. If not for an Efren Reyes today's players wouldn't be as skilled as they are. But these guys can do everything Efren could, plus they figured out the break and can jump with ease and accuracy.
I didn’t know theo von played efren reyes… nice😎🫰🏽
Awesome match, could you guys kindly upload the exhibition match between Willie Mosconi & Jimmy Carras? :)
Have seen a few clips, but it would be awesome to see the full match and it would also be a nice way to honour Willie in the run up to the Mosconi Cup.
Thanks again guys, you rock.
I got the 8 from CJ one afternoon in Affton Billiards for 20 a game I had him about 6 games stuck when the house pro came in and asked me what I was doing. I said robbing this sucker with a spray painted pool cue for $20 a game He said that’s CJ Wiley and you need more than the 8. And that’s a spray painted Balabushka he’s playing with I told CJ his action was queered played till we were even and kindly quit him
