Hands down

My buddy and I recently met him in an exhibition in Palawan, Philippines. He was with Francisco Bustamante, another great player. They were both so generous with their time, allowing us to have photos taken with them, signing my buddy's pool cue and chatting with us. It was on my 64th birthday. Its a birthday that I'm not about to forget (unless I get dementia... heh heh).

1:03 Efren: My break's very weak (Proceeds to break every record and break his oponents soul)

because the auto translate is so funny, here is what efren is saying: What player do you admire? I think Mike Sigel, for me, because… I saw him with a lot of good shot, good stroke, and very smart too. What is your favorite game? My fav game before is rotation, player rotation and backline, backline three balls. And then from about 10 years ago I switched to 1 pocket. What is your least favorite game? 9 ball and 10 ball, because you know, my break is very weak. What quality or trait do you like in a player? I like to see a player who is quiet, and concentrating on the game. And even if he is losing he is happy. What quality or trait do you not like in a player? I do not like a player who, like sometimes he is cocky and looks down on the other player. What is your biggest weakness as a player? My biggest weakness is if I do not sleep well. And if I sometimes I don’t feel good, my strokes are not good. What is your biggest strength as a player? The best parts of my game are how to preposition, my concentration and thinking smart. (*preposition - I do not know the billiard term, but he means placing the cue and balls where he wants them to be ) What is your biggest regret? When you are playing, sometimes you don’t shoot good and sometimes you hook. That’s what I don’t like because you have no chance of winning if you don’t shoot the ball everytime and everytime you hook. What is your greatest achievement? My greatest achievement was in 1999, winning the World Pool Championship in in Cardiff, Wales. Which player would you be? One player? Mike Sigel too. (pardon my poor billiard vocabulary, i think some words have appropriate billiard terms, like shoot the ball, i don't know, im a single mom and have not even played a real game of billiard)

Not only is he obviously a nice man, but you can learn by watching him. Because he makes hard shots look easy, an amateur or a beginner can learn to "see" the table just by watching him play.

My greates respect for people like Efren. I never wanted to look up to no one, but Efren is one of a view human beeings that i am really willing to look up to. If i could ever play with him, it would be the greatest day in History for me.

In Ten Years from now there will be a Major International Tournament, The Efren Reyes Cup. Major rule: No Jump Cues allowed.

This guy have know idea that he is the damn GOAT OF THE GAME

I sure would like to see more athletes with this mans attitude. Certainly a better role model than any I've seen in the last 20 years. Most are unappreciative and spoiled. Reyes is a good man and a true professional!

It's really hard to find a humble GOAT.

On the cover of the Feb 96 issue of Billiards Digest is a picture of the unassuming Efren "The Magician" Reyes garbed as, what else, a magician! There is a lengthy article on this Billiards legend, so I suggest to buy your own copy. But I enjoyed it so much I thought I'd post it anyway even though somebody else might have already done so in the past. Coincidentally, a second article on The Magician appears in this month's Filipinas magazine. FYI, Barnes & Nobles carries Filipinas magazine. HIS OWN MAGICAL TOUR by Mike Panozzo One can almost imagine the thoughts that ran through tournament director Scott Smith's mind at Red's 9-Ball Open in Houston nearly 11 years ago when a skinny foreigner with a scraggly mustache and a shortage of teeth penciled in the name "Cesar Morales" and plunked down his entry fee. "I thought he was just a local kid, from the 'Little Mexico' area of Houston," remembers Smith. Few people paid much attention when the quiet invader bought himself in the pre-tournament calcutta for $75, and even fewer bothered to wander back to the table in the most obscure corner of the massive night club/poolroom to witness his opening-round match -- Morales vs Johnson. With his cover as "Cesar Morales" long since blown, Philippine supercueman and 1995 Billiards Digest Player of the Year Efren Reyes, sipping from a Heineken in the lounge of the Adam's Mark hotel in Winston-Salem, N.C., breaks into one of his squinty-eyed, tight-lipped smiles. Ha laughed at the recollection, barely able to speak. "They put me on a table in the back of the room," he says, laughing again. "They think I can't play!" Mr. Johnson, holding the doughnet end of a 10-0 score, probably could have warned a few players about the mysterious Morales. He chose instead to depart the premises, not even bothering to show up for his loser's bracket match. Next up in Houston was in Oklahoma's David Matlock-then considered one of the top five bar-table players in the country. Unimpressed, Reyes (Morales) dismantled the powerful lefthander, 10-2. By the fourth round of the 96-player tournament, the buzz was starting to build. Reyes' exaggerated, roller-coaster stroke, merciless safeties, accurate jump shots and mind-bending kick shots (which earned him his long-standing moniker, "The Magician") had sweators and pros alike confounded. Who was this Morales? Where did he come from? And how did he learn all those wild shots? Intrigue gave way to fervent nationalism as Reyes approached the title match against road warrior-turned tournament-player Wade Crane (who also entered the tournament under an alias: Billy Johnson). Nearly 1,000 Texans jammed the bi-level club, and chants of "U.S.A., U.S.A." echoed through the arena. Reyes rode in with his own posse, about 20 strong, who added to the circus atmosphere with chants of "Manila, Manila," and the then-popular "Where's da beef?" after each Reyes conquest. The only hitch in Reyes' stroke came after the final match, when he signed a few autographs "Efren Reyes," revealing his true identity. The significance of this recollection is not so much the fact that then- 29-year-old Reyes won the $10,500 top prize in his first U.S. pro tournament. The event's importance is measured by the impact Reyes' appearance and success had on the men's professional 9-ball scene. Never before had the crop of American 9-ballers seen the likes of Reyes. So astonished and offended was then-Texan Earl Strickland (who finished third, just missing a shot at Reyes), that he challenged all players- himself included-to turn up their games a notch to protect America's dominance in pocket billiards. But as suddenly as Manila's mystery man had arrived, he disappeared, returning to his native Philippines. For the next four months Reyes was the topic of virtually every pool-related discussion. His much- anticipated midsummer return to the U.S. spurred a mini tournament revival. Reyes was the rage of the American pool scene. Crowds were always largest whenever Reyes played. And he rarely disappointed. After years of playing nothing but rotation money matches in the Philippines, Reyes quickly adapted to the rigors of tournament 9-ball. He posted several top-10 finished, and a few memorable performances. Perhaps the most revealing display of Reyes' immense talent came during a 10-day stretch in August of that year. Reyes had severed relations with his first backer, Philippine businessman Nonie Ortega, and was staying in Chicago with insurance broker Phillip Estrada, whom he had befriended in Houston. After finishing seventh at the Busch 9-Ball Open pro tour event in nearby Moline, Ill., Reyes returned to Chicago and decided to enter the Billiards Digest 3-Cushion Championship. Forget that Reyes had never competed in a carom tournament. The '85 three-cushio classic attracted 42 players from 13 countries, including 19-time world champion Raymond Ceulemans of Belgium, future world champ Torbjorn Blomdahl of Sweden, France's Richard Bitalis and Argentina's Luis Doyharzabal. Undeterred, Reyes strolled into Chris's Billiards, limbered up with a few racks of rotation, averaged .836 and posted a creditable 4-2 record in the preliminary round-barely missing a spot in the 12-man final-round bracket. Reyes did, however, qualify for the 12-man consolation bracket. There, he caromed his way to a Ceulemans-like 1.30 average (including a 40-19 win in just 20 innings), and won the $1,000 top prize. And just how did the versatile Filipino celebrate? He raced across town to enter a rapid-fire, one-day 9-ball tournament that featured some of the Midwest's top talent (including Jeff Carter, Dallas West, Jimmy Mataya and Mark Wilson). Naturally, Reyes rolled unbeated through the 49-player field to earn an additional $1,300! Reyes went on to win two more major 9-ball titles in '85, posted the year's highest winning percentage (.785) and tallied the most .900- plus AccuStats Total Performance Average matches (20). More than anything, Reyes singlehandedly jump-started a professional sports tour. Any tournament he entered was more exciting. And players became students. An inordinately large number of fellow pros could usually be seen watching Reyes' matches, analyzing his patters and studying his kicking, jumping and safety skills. "His style was so drastically different," remembers two-time Billiards Digest Player of the Year Nick Varner. "He attracted a lot of attention. And he had a big impact on the way we played the game. He created an awareness about kicking. We generally tried to hide. He made the shots. He taught us that just because you're snookered, you don't have to lose the game." "When he first came here, I used to laugh when he kicked at balls," adds recently retired Mike Sigel, who was the game's dominant player in the mid-'80s and the player Reyes admits was the American he most enjoyed playing. "I thought no one could do that accurately and consistently. We just guessed when he kicked. But he knew what he was doing. And I never realized how important that was until I studied his game. "He was also pretty intimidating then," Sigel continues, figuratively no doubt, given Reyes' 5-foot-7, 135-pound frame. "You couldn't communicate with him, because he didn't speak English then. And his stroke and style were so different that they scared opponents. I know I wasn't crazy about playing him. And I think he beat me the last four or five times we played." Between visa limitations and homesickness, Reyes played in the U.S. only sporadically the next two years - usually playing from February to June, then returning to his home in Angeles City to be with his parents and his two children. In '86 he played in just four tournaments, winning his fourth pro title at the Sands Regency Open. In '87, Reyes again played in the U.S. for only six months. Still, he made the final four in three of the year-s four biggest tournaments and closed the year ranked fifth by the Men's Professional Billiards Association. Like clockwork, Reyes was back again to start the '88 calendar year. And in May he grabbed his fifth major 9-ball title, topping Sigel in the final of the McDermott Masters in Troy, Mich. But posing for post-event trophy photos in the Troy Hilton ballroom, tuxedo-clad and champion's check in hand, Reyes could not possibly have anticipated the winless streak on which he was about to embark. Over the next six years, Reyes would reach the championship match in no fewer than eight major 9-ball tournaments. Each time, Reyes would leave town a disheartened runner-up. (Granted, from '88-'92 he entered five or fewer tournaments per year.) Twice ('93 and '94) his final-match losses came at the PBT World 9-Ball Championship - the title Reyes covets more than any other. Another was in the largest, riches professional tournament in the history of the sport, the '92 International 9-Ball Classic (435 players $40,000 top prize). His record in television matches: a dismal 4-8. Hardly a record befitting a player nonetheless considered by many to be the best pool player in the world. "Efren always seemed to have trouble with the 9-ball break," says Varner. "It was inconsistent. Everyone knows that to wn one of the big 9-ball tournaments, your break has to be going well. Efren would get to the last or three matches, and then the inconsistency would catch up to him. When you reach the finals and you're playing Johnny Archer or Earl Strickland, your break better be working or you're going to be in for a long match. "Then, after it happened a few times, the psychological problem of trying to get the monkey off your back seemed to affect him." Reyes agrees. "For a long time, I am not lucky in the final," he says, in vastly improved but still somewhat broken English. "I don't make balls on the break. But mostly, there was always been a lot of pressure for me to win. Everyone in the Phi
