    Efren is why I got into pool. He made me look at the game like anything was possible if you can figure out the math. Unfortunately I can no longer play due to injury in one eye and loss of sight in the other, but I still love the game and watching Efren's old matches can still bring a smile to my face.

    My grandpa was a hustler, made his living his whole life doing it. I asked him once who was the best player he ever came across, he told me Efren Reyes was the best player and most genuine man he’d ever met. One of the few times he ever spoke genuinely respectful of anyone.

He makes the most simple shots so difficult not for bragging, but to make the game fun for him to play and others to watch. He's actually so humble that it's a pleasure for the opponents to lose for him ins such majestic ways.

      The amazing thing about that shot was that he actually had to add reverse English to the ball in order for it to kick off the back rail at the perfect angle such that it would reversed the angle of the rebound and put the ball on a perfect trajectory after hitting the back rail. Simply amazing. I have no words; he might not be the best pool player in the world but he certainly is the best magician on a pool table.

    Efren Reyes, or the magician, did not gain his exquisite and unique proficiency from nothing. He started playing pool since he was 8 y/o and now he's 65 y/o (dated today) which means he has been playing pool for 57 years (born August 26, 1954).
    Efren has mastered the entire pool table angles, strikes force, unimaginable control and precision on the cue ball, and a very high self-confidence with absolutely no vanity (He's very humble and friendly by the way).
    Two more things about Efren Reyes, he has never underestimated any opponent, and he has never neglected the calculation of any hit no matter how easy the ball is.
    God bless Efren Bata Reyes.

    He has to be very confident inside but to all people around him, he seems so low key and humble. That's the type of champion that I respect AND admire.

    Idol ko talaga tong si efren bata reyes. Kaht matanda na wala pa din kayabang yabang sa katawan. Don ko mas lalong inidolo tong tao na to. Hindi natin sya nakita sa tv na ipinapakita kung anong meron yaman sya. Hindi din sya bumibili ng mga luxury cars o nagpapatayo ng magagandang bahay. Nakita ko ang bahay nya sa isang documentary. Simpleng simple lang at hindi mo aakalain na isa syang world champion. Patuloy nya ginagawa yung nakagisnan nya simula nung bata pa sya. Ang makipaglaro sa kanto kanto. We love you efren sana humaba pa buhay mo. Isa ka sa tinatagong kayamanan ng pilipinas. Hindi lang sa larangan ng bilyar kundi sa pakikipagkapwa tao sating kapwa pilipino.

    This is how the GOAT plays. He doesnt just pocket it, he plays with it with excellent precision.
