I remember seeing this live! My dad taught me billiards and was literally laughing at the TV when they called Reyes’s shot lucky. Thank you 🙏🏻 to whoever posted this. Brings back memories. I wish my dad had lived long enough to see the GOAT Reyes would go on to become. He said then he was the most creative shot maker he’d ever seen.

You're quite welcome, Brian. Glad it brought back happy memories with your dad. Few things are more valuable than those familial collections in your mind.

Bustamante is 25 years old here. Even as young as that is, sometimes I look at him and I think he could be in his late teens. Criminy he's been at this a long time. He's in the top 3 of my all time favorites to watch play this game. And in my opinion having Mizerak and Hall commentating together here is as good as it gets.

I love to tell this story.. Willards 9-ball jamboree in 1992.. Over 500 of the best players on the planet.. Bustamante first trip to America.. He gets in action with CJ Wiley giving CJ the wild 8 ball (which is just an excuse to play, really... Literally means nothing to players of their caliber).. Bustamante wins 2 sets without missing a ball and just robs CJ, who was playing as well as anyone at the time.. After it’s over, Incardona tells Bustamante’s stakehorse he can play Buddy Hall and win the town, if he wants.. The offer is politely declined.. Then Incardona tells the guy Efren can play Buddy and win whatever he wants.. And that offer is politely declined, as well.. Buddy Hall is the greatest 9-ball player ever, bar none..

I don't think the first one was "lucky" though. That was a typical Efren play. He's been in the US for 12 years or so by 1995 when this game was played., so they should have not been surprised that Efren can do those kind of shots. On the other that kick safe shot by Efren is phenomenal.

I totally agree with you. It was an absolutely world-class safety shot. What an inspiring display of skill, knowledge, and visualization on the part of Efren.

Dear Christ! How much material do have on tape, Ray?! My father would be very envious of you for having so much pool footage still viewable after 2 decades. He had several tapes worth of Billiard matches, too, but most didn't survive the past 25+ years.

How luck can I get? Mizerak and Hall commentating I must be in heaven.

Reyes rarely gets distracted, but he clearly was distracted by the camera directly in his line of sight: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eXpm1tGsZtu4lco.html&feature=player_detailpage#t=5068 It's almost certainly the reason for his atypical miss on this shot. By 1995 after a dozen years of being televised, pros were fairly accustomed to cameras directly on the shot line, but they *did* occasionally get "camera-bit" as you'd expect. Absent today's computer-linked & remotely controllable setups, up close & personal was often unavoidable, but fans viewing the original telecasts did love the immediacy and excitement of these classic tournaments -- just as we all do today when enjoying and learning from them).

Has anyone seen the match that Jose Perica made two unbelievable cuts in one game. One of the shots was object ball in the middle of the short rail against the cushion with the cue ball in the middle of the opposite short rail not very far of the cushion. Can't remember the second cut but it was also another mind blending cut. It could have been against Buddy Hall and sometime in the 80's.

ray carlton billiards - thanks for the info, I did have a VHS copy but that tape got corrupted years ago. Yeah I know the technique and could make them way back when but not under the pressure of tournament game being filmed. What funny is I started shooting pool before Earl the Pearl pickup a cure stick. Being from Hawaii we never had the action or tournament play to get to the pro ranks. I was a very good natural player that had a little informal instruction from a gambler and played a game that wouldn't have been good professionally. We shot out and the idea if safety play never came into the picture. I learned to use English in ways you don't see in the pro tournaments. Efren is the closest that style and I too slept in pool halls or stayed up all night playing. I wish I had the opportunity to try pool professionally. Like Paul Newman in The Color of Money said (if I remember correctly) about the sweetness of money won. I very much enjoy your videos.

Billy Incardona ("Cardone") correctly observed "Filipinos and most Asians know things about the cue ball that we don't know."

Bustamante is and was indeed a great gentleman on or off the table and it's very unfortunate for everyone that a slo-mo replay wasn't either available or asked for, at the time (25 years ago). The referree definitely had a difficult, instantaneous decision to make -- no one could argue with that. Sports fans are definitely free to interpret slow-motion replays in any manner they wish to and be confident that thousands of viewers will agree with their opinion while a similar number will not. Happens in any sport or with any Internet subject. Sports controversies are the least important ones in today's world and are actually probably a very welcome distraction from upsetting news of events far beyond our control. In any case, I'm certainly glad I was able to restore and digitize my home-recording of the live 1995 broadcast for whatever pleasure today's fans can continually derive in viewing it (and any others in my archived collection). Our beloved sport has given me many decades of pleasure in playing and competing in it, and I enjoy the opportunity of giving something back to the sport by way of preserving a bit of history for other generations.

Any pro, on any given day, has the potential to defeat any given opponent *with ease* (as you put it). Pros -- and most top athletic coaches -- know the very important difference between being *_Prepared_* (a full arsenal of all pool skills) for a match, and being *_Ready_* for a particular pool match. Quite often a severe trouncing is related to who was more *_Ready_* for that match. They're not automatons. Supernaturally self-confident Willie Mosconi, a Straight Pool specialist, was the closest to unwavering automaton-like perfection when winning 15 world titles. Virtually unbeatable for the title. He was never *_not Ready_* to win against any opponent. When a billiards news reporter asked whether he felt any pre-match pressure, Willie replied: "Pressure? I leave that to the other guy; I only have to play pool . . . he has to play Mosconi." True story.
