    It was great to see Rafael Martinez; he was someone I heard about but never saw him shoot until now. His serious, stoic, never smiles demeanor could be a bit intimidating for some competitors but it did not seem to bother the focused but relaxed Johnny Archer.

    I had a Vacaville California city championship pool team and I was fortunate enough to have Roger Estelle on my team who’s as just a notch under these guys in his prime, he was friends with Rafael so 1 week of the season I had Roger and Rafeal on my team going back to back every set playing half of the possible games, that’s like a retired Marvin Harrison and a Brandon Stokley on a 4 receiver flag football team lol I’ve never played under less pressure to win lol
    Rafael went 3-1 and with 3 tables run…If he doesn’t run the table he’s beatable cause hes super aggressive and will take chances but once he gets his rhythm 🤷‍♂️ just take a seat, GREAT GUY, MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT 💯

      Raphael was a great player before he got into drugs! Must have been around this time, because I'm the 92' video, he looks 40 to 50 lbs heavier. I used to see him in LA around the early 2k's ( not 10 years later) and he looked like shit, but he could still get on a roll!♥️🙏👉🇺🇸

      speaking of cj wiley, he cheated earl out of most of the million dollars earl had won..cj owned a pool hall in dallas and hosted a big time pool tourney, invitational only, bunch of world class players including earl..cj declared anyone who runs all 11 racks on these 9' triple shimmed pockets wins 1 million dollars...you see cj had gone to an insurance company and got them to back this incredible task, insurance companys requirement was that all 11 racks had to be filmed..cj being an ass didnt start filming earls feat until the 4th game..voiding insurance companys liability..think about it 11 racks on a 9' triple shimmed table, earls last shot was a tough combination on the nine, I think this was far more spectacular than mosconies 526 ball run..or anything ever done on a pool table..and poor earl got cheated out of it. this is why earl got the nickname "million dollar man". cj ended up paying earl a few thousand out of his own pocket.
