And he always say "I just got lucky".... So humble...
maybe that's the best way to motivate his opponent .
Mind games
@@dreivceliz1570 no, he knows he is lucky - some people are
@@michaelmcknight3639 he already calculated the angle and took risk. He can saw a way that a normal person can't see that's why he was called the magician.
i do beleave that in pool luck plays a small role.....well not just pool but in all sport, i play golf and there is often luck involved....I play pool as well and often i find myself calling myself or the other giy lucky
At 67 years old, he was competing in sea games 2022, winning bronze. I don't have the data, but I bet he is the oldest athlete in any games.
my dad, 92, still runs in competitions
And that is not even his favourite format (pool)
yessssss
@@michaelmcknight3639he was talking about Asian Olympic games…..not your regular pool hall gig
The level of disrespect this man had to face all his life in the hands of commentators is sad to see now. He was way ahead of his time but was always under appreciated until much later in his career
Cos all commentators back then were white. And they are racist as well. 100%
I can only imagine...what is even more worse is he was disrespected by low level people who were not worthy of his time......a most humble and kind man with the brain of genius quality. A beautiful mind and human.
The most thrilling slinger of a cue ever.
agree they just can't accept the fact & reality that EFREN bata REYES is the GOAT in billiards
Caucasians for you.
Jesus says he who is humble shall be exalted... he who is exalted shall be humble... Efren is a humble pool superstar the best there ever was. 👍🎱
Jesus says send Christian missionaries to poor countries and convert them by fraud 😜
Ah yes, tell thst to floyd mayweather
Floyd Mayweather: Hello 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Ahh😫 the JESUS comment again yes!
@GeneralRevision Nice one! 👍🎱
He's literally playing the game to have fun, it shows on his face whenever he wins or not. That smile just says "This is fun, I want to play some more".
Efren is a real GOAT of pool, his dance is legendary
you are the goat
He's probably the most successful athlete of the Philippines. It may not be by money but medals and awards and most of all the people who love him.
One of the best statement in this video is that he is an amazing kick shot. A lot of players can do what Efren does as a trick shot where there are no pressures involved, but Efren's been doing it in an actual game, in a major event and more importantly in a championship match where a lot is at stake and there are pressure in each and every shot he makes.
Always gonna love him. He's a wonderful person and wildly talented guy.
He is the GOAT of pool 🎱... the living legend. Thank you so much the magician for sharing us your great tallent. Its been a pleasure watching you. You are an amazing pool player and an amazing person. Philippines is so proud of you.
I'm not even much of a pool player myself, but I've always heard people who play mention his name. I vividly remember Joe Rogan mentioning him years ago as the greatest pool player of all-time.
Just a Smiling, Simple, humble and Supremely Talented guy....The GOAT of POOL
Its not over till I say its over.
- Efren Reyes
it's an honor for our country 🇵🇭 to acknowledge our dear Efren Reyes being called as the GOAT of pool...we are proud of him one of the finest athletes from our country....Efren is now part of PH coaching team and honing the young generation of pool players from our country...if i only play pool it will be a great honor to be able to learn from the GOAT and a living legend of pool.
still, cruel to call him a goat
@@michaelmcknight3639 how is that cruel?
@@Ash20597 he has a right to be respected as a human bean
@@michaelmcknight3639 GOAT literally stands for "Greatest Of All Time".
@@Ash20597 I was being critical about what it metaphorically stands for.
Love him or hate him, Strickland always had a soft spot for Efren and always showed respect....unlike other players
They are now bff lol
@@dormamo6917 both of them are the truly greatest rival duo of all time... You can't see who's who without one another?
(Most likely in the movies you can't see the leading actor without a co star."contrabida/Bida)
Earl is actually a good guy, he just doesn't tolerate people who don't take the game as seriously as he does. When someone like Efren plays the game with the same respect and talent Earl shows them respect and friendship. He definitely loves Efren but sometimes that competitive nature makes him act a little strange lol, but he is mostly misunderstood and looked at like a bad sport which is a bad mistake. Earl is probably second only to Efren in pure talent and drive and just shows his frustration more than most. If he played any other sport, like basketball, he would be seen as intense and spirited but because pool is mostly laid back and polite he is branded as a troublemaker.
@@jeffmauldin2841 efren and earl reminds me of goku and vegeta, i don't know you know these character in anime hehe.
@@benignojrgallero7726 tom cruise wasn't a bad player either
salamat sa paghighlights kay efren we filipinos also vouch for efren being so humble.
And he has so much respect for the game that he never does jump shots.
I saw him doing a jump shot in one international tournament, just once, maybe he just only wanna try it
I definitely think jump shots should be removed from the game, or at least jump cues removed. Pool was alot more entertaining and interesting when guys didn't jump. Watching more safety battles and kicks. Now its just a jump after a jump
agree..
If you check his video interview together with von he said that jump shot is a disrespect for the defender.
the dancing Efren always makes me smile.
I’m not a fan of 9 ball, but he makes everything look so easy. When I was in tournaments I would take a moment to figure and set my shots, he just walks up and does it so quickly! Big fan😁
The way the ball moves is just so mesmerising when he shoots it. Shot after shot. He just makes the right play in the worst situations
The Diego Maradona of pool.
Guided by the hand of God
He is very humble and a good man, we are very proud of him❤️❤️❤️
A humble champion indeed. A quality that makes him all the more likable by all.
The most important accolades of Efren is being so Humble and down to earth person.
The man that revolutionized the billiards tactics
From sleeping under the billiard table to pass the night, to 5 time top earner in pool. That's one of the best character development ever.
he is so humble he still sleeps under the same pool table he was playing on as a 5-year-old
He's really obsessed with billiards that's like cp or iphone addiction to some. Efren is addicted to billiards.
That's why I love most western people. They live in Sportsmanship. Love you Kababayan.
Efren Reyes is either the luckiest player ever to sink a nine ball, or the greatest pool player there has ever been, or ever will be......I know which option I go for, Efren Reyes, the Magician, simply the best.
he got lucky
I really hope he teaches now that he has retired. His game knowledge of how ball physics work is insane.
@@Seeka-re6lg lucky you said? 😂
@@Seeka-re6lg we all need some luck , but the master like Efren know what and how . We have to accept the name " The Magician " because we don't know how he did it .
He's a genius in the pool table. God tier level.
67 years old and still playing carom in SEA games 💪
I think his 74yrs old now.... Efren guest in the Vietnam pool event.. 3weeks ago And Vietnamese love him so much.. You need to watch a news..
Sorry for wrong grammar 😁
@@kimchankim3920 He was born august 1954. You can do the math if you think I'm wrong. Obviously I'm watching the recent events that's why I said about the SEA games. I think you're the one who needs some researching.
The GOAT of Billiards!!!❤
He is the "supreme wizard".he is just that great..wow
Need more athletes with mindset like him.
Very, very, very humble! I love this kind of player!
What I admired most about Bata Reyes aside from being d greatest ever is.. his humbleness.
a new fan for Efren, que genio admiro su humildad y sencillez ♥
His ability to shoot the ball is very extra ordinary that years and years to come will still be remembered.
agree
The GOAT. Efren has met/passed all the categories and requirements necessary of being it. No doubt.
A truly humble man is remarkably rare. Lots of brazen big egos in the world of billiards. For Effren to be the top dog in that world is difficult to imagine.
For me He will always be the the Artist of the Game…….just lyk Picasso n basquiat…..ain’t never gonna be another one…..👌👌👌👌👍😘😘😘😘
Because of the spirit of humbleness upon this man Efren Reyes has Made Mr Reyes one of the best pool shark player for 40 years he’s well respected , he’s had a good life , people love him,and he enjoys what he does , and he’s a blessed man good for you Mr. Reyes God bless you always amen.
Wow I’ve watched a lot of pool videos and I’ve never seen the shot at 1:48 before. What an amazing shot that just looks absolutely amazing.
Efren is absolutely the G.O.A.T.
It's so sad he's not in his prime anymore.
God bless.
Everyone gets old and has to pass the torch to somebody. He lived his life loving and respecting his gift . Reaching the pinnacle of success with much humility. That's why he's is well loved by his peers on and off the billiard tables.
Efren Reyes and Larry Bird has something in common, they just loved to play!
he is not only a magician. he is a supreme wizard. the GOAT.
I just like the fact that after all his achievements and fame. He still wanted to live the life he had before all of it
Every player was wondering how Efren could make these amazing shots with such ease. That's how good he was in his prime even now Efren can still amaze the crowd. Truly a legend and never will be replaced
If you want to watch great safety battle you can count on reyes vs strickland, he also won IPT King of the Hill twice..tge tournament where he won the highest prize money in pool
Back in the 90's me and my father we watch reyes bustamante and other Filipino pool player's. Thats the bonding time for my father and me.
Truly he is a magician
The most loved athlete in the Philippines,maybe the 🌍 too
That last shot with a bag on his shoulder, c’mon he made it look like it was child play. Yes some of this stuff that he does on the table is truly magical. GOAT 🐐.
And also a piece of paper in his hand.. that insane..
When racism refuses to stfu. This man deserve more back then and now.
Im not really a pool/snooker guy, but boy oh boy, this was highly satisfying to watch .
What a sure-handed, eagle-eyed trickster of a pool magician .
Plus : DA SPORTSMANSHIP is real with Mr. Reyes
The best opponents the legend Efren and of course Earl undoubtably a legend as well , it’s funny how alike my father in law is to Efren lol he is Filipino as well, my wife always sees me watching game of Efren even tho I’m even Latino haha
Dont think pool players are called athelete but loved the video.. Efren Reyes is an ambasador to the game. A legend.
Proud to be a Filipino
Cringe
5:34 Everybody in the universe can tell how he felt from his facial expression.
when i watch ANY efren reyes video, i always have a stupid smile 😊🤣😄
This was really interesting, it came up on my feed and I'm pleased it did!
I'm really interested in these types of sport like darts, snooker, billiards, scrabble, eSports, pro kabbadi ! Just any sport or competition which highlights great talent, dedication and sportspersonship for sports and championships you might not hear much about.
damn this was a treat to watch
Efren has such casual swagger as he walks to and fro and around the table.... relaxed and calm....
There is a famous proverb in Hinduism, a fruit bearing tree is always humbly drooped, a tethered one always stand flat arrogantly straight ... also..flexibility and ability to bend and bow is a sign of life....cold and rigid is a corpse
His opponents always seemed to be happy when they lose a match against Reyes.
Except Strickland. That first time.
Yea really seems like most have a good sense of sportsmanship and aren't there for money as much as they are there to play a game they are passionate about with people who are also deeply passionate about it.
@@Figs3 Thats why it was so nice to see him raise Reyes arm in the air the second time.
@6:38
Pearl: “there’s a god”
Magician: “I am the god”
we have very rare heroes in which we can imagine ourselves
From Vietnam with love
It's a legend And humble man🎉🎉🎉
He doesn’t have that Iam the world’s best EGO that is usually found in pool players. Even beginners for some reason think they are the best shooters in the world 🌎 it’s always funny to observe them
You channel your ego into.practice
He admire.other players because also wants to learn amazing shots from other players. He said he learned his trick shots from noob players. Efren is an excellent student of the game
That video just made me so happy.
in humility lies greatness
When a 5 years old child start anything with full of love and earn first money by that anything he did with full of love at the age of nine, that is a journey of A Legend and A G.O.A.T and not a LUCKIEST MAN. He works very very hard to achieve that title.
Amazing shots we forget who was the first or why was or when we're the Magician ever been mention the very first time to address Efren.
Reyes is a live legend in pool table.. equal to mohammad ali, mike tyson, valentino rossi, khabib nurmagomedov, legend in the ring, octagon, race track and pool table...
Very nice gesture Earl Strickland!
Best player in the WORLD 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wtf . I played pool just yesterday and this popped up in my recommendation. Google is scary 😭
We need a movie of him
He may have become first recognized with Nick Varner but no doubt his greatest rival was/is Earl Strickland. The matches they had was just on a different level. Competing for who's the best player in the world. They had some of the best matches from the 1995 Sands Regency 9 ball Open to the 1996 Colour of Money match. And even more after that
nakakatawa pagtatapos ng video.. yayakapnsa si efren pagharap niya si bustamante pala mayakap niya.. sabay isnab.. hahaha🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣😂 just4laflangpoha🙏😊
Earl such a sportman on that last match he conceded already even efren haven't shot the last ball
This guy was so good in his early days that nobody wanted to play him anymore and he stopped playing pool and got a job in a printing press! Lol Then he went to America under an alias because there was already words spreading about a Filipino pool hustler that they should look out for, lmao undisputed 🐐!
Efren the GOAT 👍🏻
The GOAT ain't human, he is the machine 🏆
Perfect example of being human as a human being
Keep vlooging new freind.
Thanks
Efren is cheating. He has geometry vision, he can see lines and angles on the table that no one can.
I think I just learned a new one today.. apparently Effren is an athlete too :O
He is the GOAT of Billiards!
A true legend
i dont play pool but i know him cuz of his shots he is that legendary
he is the magician and the "GOAT"
The goat
It's my idol❤❤❤
God bless him. Simply the best
Epic come back from 17 deficit rack.🔥
Real champion 🏆
El Más Grande...Efrén Reyes!!!
7:40 greatest shot of all time.
great highlights
You definitely nailed it☺️
his humbleness made him the greatest player in pool
Its like Earl is Magneto and Efren is Charles. LOL
