The legendary golfer Ben Hogan once said, "The more I practice, the luckier I get." That phrase applies to the incomparable Efren Bata Reyes. Equal parts genius and hard work. Synthesized into the greatest pool player that ever lived.

5:54 I'm surprised he didn't mention that Efren did that shot left handed which takes it to another level

Even Efren says "I got luck" lol but he is always very intentional

It is part luck, part intentional. But the precise shot was crazy

Sometimes you just have to be good to be lucky!

There’re billiard players, then there’s Efren Reyes. Let’s be clear, that’s two categories!

some shots were luck but most were skill.

He is a walking protractor. Right?

It’s how easy he makes it look, like he is not really trying

On the big stage containing pressure is everything but if your as good as efren nobody can defeat you. Because I never see him crack under pressure vs his opponents where you can see how nervous and anxious there trying to get another chance to shoot.

A delight to watch👍🎱

No way that middle pocket nipple to corner was intentional because it didn't change the location of the cue ball. Nonetheless, I'm glad to have discovered this channel. Just learned about Efren's existence and he is awesome.

La suerte no existe y mas viniendo de quien conoce y sabe lo que hace y tiene pasión por lo que hace ... muy pocos conocen tan bien las virtudes de la bola blanca y todos los efectos en sumatoria, al igual que las bandas, ángulos, geometría, velocidad lo demás es imaginación y cálculo.

tama.. keso plesingan pa eh.. tirahin na kasi may palpak din nmn sa plesing🥰🥰🥰

i like the job you do my friend and laugh because you make these videos hilarious and i enjoy it,as for the shot i think it was Intentional and not by luck

Efren won a $70k prize: That's a lot of money, I don't know what to do with it.

MAGNIFICENT!!!

anyone knows how can I contact Efren and visit him on his hometown or a game I can watch in person? Thank you

5 ball off the side pocket into the corner may have been intentional... It is not the first time he has done this shot ...usually he is sending the cue ball off the side pocket up the rail to the target ball... This is the first time I have seen him perform this shot with the target ball..

Thats efren he is full of suprise he try to give the audience full of excitement.hes really the magician of the billiard king.

That nose corner pocket shot is intentional as we in the Philippines practice that. Efren used that against Fong Pang Chao in a long race win.

I look at it this way if your fundamentals are strong and you have good speed and stroke control a missed ball will still find the pocket. So if you have skill luck is also on your side

1:58 purely luck of course but thats not a surprise from the magician..he always does those

Sometimes like it's lucky, but he does it..

Really? "Was it luck or intentional?" Are you serious? We all love Efren but we don't lose our sense of reality on the way

Yeah but it was intentional for position on the 9 you see? Because being in the jaws of the pocket closest to where the 9 was positioned on the cushion is where he wanted the cue ball. A 9 ball that would have been easier from almost anywhere else on the table see 👀. That’s where he wanted it. Seeeeee🧐…🙄. 😂😂😂 Atrocious commentary. Awful analysis. Love watching Efren but it’s this kind of commentary that you find constantly on both live coverage and these compilations on KZread that really serve to do him, and the sport in general, a disservice.

may swerte din si bata

Luck or intentional, what's important is the ball went in.

First shot ‘fully intentional to get position on the nine ball’ ? I think that given where that nine ball is that he pretty much couldn’t have finished in a worse place positionally.

I believe it is luck.

Whilst this man is the GOAT I get sick of these complications. A lot of these shots are pure luck but admit some are planned for and skill. Of course over the thousands of shots he plays there will be some pot luck. If he nominated the pocket every time then I'd say that they were all planned and skill shots but that's not the case.
