It's amazing how the mentality of the game has changed so much. The announcers are always suggesting offensive shots, even when defense is obvious. Very different these days.
Only Efren could make a tux and bowtie look like he's wearing a $2.99 boy's size 20 shirt from Woolworth's Bargain Basement. But what a true champion, making the most of his talent, unlike some pool might-have-beens.
Amazing how little Mizerak seems to know about the shots, a 4-time straight pool world champion. Of course it's only an act to create intrigue among the layman viewers, but somewhat irritating anyway. I like these old matches though; they bring some flavor in pro matches that these days have no drama or emotion to speak of.
McCready was definitely a force to be reckoned with back then! I loved watching him play at Hard Times. He so animated. So after watching this I'm wondering a what time did Efren start playing ridiculously bomb with the kick-safeties (founded probably by him from God) and weird english shots (???).
Its good to see a young Efren Reyes play. Priceless
Thanks for posting! I grew up watching Keith play and it is always a treat to see him in action!

Keith McCready is incredible in the lag, he always glues cue ball to the rail...astonishing!
love this video, i wish there were more of keith. thanks Jan for sharing
Reyes is playing with a $15 cue. nice
Hey, the payouts back then are about what they are now...lol
AWESOME!!! Thank you! Do you have any more?
Also, CLEARLY not a foul; the OB goes over 90 degrees off the line of the CB.
Wow. What an upload!!
Thank you very much.

great draw at 19:55
great upload! Unfortunate about the quality but I guess it's from an old vhs so that's cool.
8:43 LOL
35:50, Efren put an inside spin on that 9? HITW?
these pockets are huge
17:00
The best there ever was. Efren doesn't even have the right to wax McCready's cue. Great shootin Evil.
