''Danny, we may be watching the greatest player of all time,'' that was 1995 and it came to pass, in 2023 we still watching the same clip.

Wiley comes across as a very nice guy. And he can really play well. Efren of course, the GOAT. Thanks for posting the video.

I tell people all the time, play straight pool(14.1 continuous) it will help shape playing 9,10,and 8 ball;even 1 pocket. Great game. My fav. Thanks for the upload

Efren Reyes will always be a Philippines pride ..❤❤😊😊

I love listening to Billy and Danny commentate. They are so knowledgable.

Ralph Greenleaf.. I’ll tell you a story about Greenleaf that Mosconi used to tell, because he did exhibitions with Greenleaf for about a decade, for Brunswick.. Mosconi rarely beat him.. But when he did Greenleaf would blame it on being drunk.. To which Mosconi replied “ you were drunk every time you beat me, too.. lololol.. Mosconi was unbeatable, and he couldn’t beat Greenleaf.. Never won a world title until Greenleaf died..

All of you dummies are wrong, the #1" pool player in the history of pocket billiards is ** Alfredo de Oro** the grand daddy of pool**, he has 22" world titles in 3 cushion billiards & 22" world titles in 14.1 continuous, then came Ralph greenleaf with 14" world titles in 14.1 continuous, then Willie mosconi with 15" world titles in 14.1" continuous, Efren Reyes don't come close to their world titles,and that's only for tournament players as for road players there's always someone better, but the #1" road player was mickey carpinello, from porchester

Adorei ver como foi maravilhoso todas as jogadas, feita com precissão . vale tudo pelo tempo que nunca é p+erdido .Gracias Obrigado Dhank You Mil-gracias Prego, mercy

Hope those who are saying that prime Efren will not be able to beat Fedor or Joshua Filler can watch this video. He played tough shots flawlessly and not even taking a lot of time to shoot them.

He was a chain smoker.😂. In that 1996 color of money challenge, he was constantly smoking. When the match got over, he ran out of cigarettes, and he borrowed a cigarette from a audience member.

Man he had the opportunity to play the goat! Efren is so lucky.

Efren knows something about the balls and rails, when the layout is very tough and there are so many balls to manouver the cueball Efren will beat them. Even the likes of SVB or Jayson Shaw will have a hard time beating Efren.

Both times I saw Efren, he was at CJs poolroom Dallas, 90s. If he wasnt playing,he was sleeping in a chair or playing chess.

Why do I have a feeling that your title "1995 Maine Event 14.1...." was supposed to say "1995 Main Event 14.1...."? Was this filmed in the state of Maine? I doubt it.

Wiley's cue grip is bizarre. Amazing he plays so well with such a restrictive grip. Efren played.... Like Efren plays.... Incredible!

Never mind calling this a match. This qualifies more as an exhibition arranged into the event by Efren Reyes. 😃

Danny is showing so much aptitute for intelligence for broadcasting a pool match. Bill was a very good player and a nice guy..... but he ruins so many matches with is over alalyzing every shot.....

Efren could have been the best 14.1 player of all time, but he couldn't make enough money getting there. He's a professional cueist. When he couldn't get played rotation in the Phillipines any longer, he took up billiards. He didn't play any pool at all for about 9 yrs. He came back to pool when he saw a future in it in the U.S. He makes a living with a cue stick, no matter the game.
