- Has Efren Reyes Lost His Magic? Efren Bata Reyes Now
In 2017, Efren "Bata" Reyes looked at our hearts when he admitted that he was no longer the great "Mago" known to the billiard world. They think I'm still good at playing. I already have weaknesses in other people. Lots of great players today. They made food for me. he said in the ABS-CBN report.
Nothing is more heartbreaking than your hero uttering these words of resignation as a sign of bitterness for a sport he has dominated for decades. But, true to his character, he offers a reassuring smile - another weapon - to dispel our bitterness about his confession. It was as if he was saying, "That's life."
Reyes earned his nickname "The Magician" because of the billiard tricks he seemed unlikely to play with his opponents. Legend has it that he was always eight steps ahead of his opponents. He studied swimming pools and predicted shots. But now, he was facing his toughest opponent, back then.
"In this sport, I fought a lot. But when I can no longer play, like now if my hand hurts, and my eyesight is difficult, we don't know if I will retire after that or maybe next year. Or I can still play next year, or next year. I'm getting old. "Aniya.
Reyes easily competes with the world's top athletes, with many sports analysts considering him the greatest pool player of all time. Many might think that, given Reyes' 70 international titles, including four World Eight Ball Championship titles, he's been there with everyone else of all time. greats like Manny Pacquiao, Tiger Woods, and Michael Phelps. In fact, pool winners are paid less than the top athletes of the more popular sports.
In 2017, Reyes lamented the increased cost of participating in a contest, which typically costs $ 5,000 in airfare and accommodation. The prize for third place was only $ 5,000 at the time, meaning you would fail if you didn't have a sponsor. At the height of billiards popularity, the top prize in the tournament was usually $ 100,000. These days, that is mostly down to $ 30,000. In 2011, he pocketed a $ 8,000 winning purse when he won the U.S. Open One Pocket Championship.

Doesn't matter about his age, eye sight, dexterity.....he will always be the Emperor of Pool.....the greatest pool player to have walked on this earth....
Tp00000000
This is the Great comment on I've ever read on The Pool Magician😊👍..
He is not just an emperor, but a sage, a legend.
Efren is THE GOAT and age won't take that away! 😎
No one can replace the Great Master Magician Efren Reyes.
C inoue kahit walang laban todo ensayo..c casimero relax relax lng ngayon
As many videos as I’ve seen of him, I would say that this is just normal Efren. He was never a braggart to begin with. A humble magician.
He'll always be the magician to me!
Yis
Yes he will Michael................he has nothing more to prove in billiards. Maybe, he is on to his next chapter in his life.
He maybe old,but the Legend will forever be young in our HEARTS.
"Efren is the Best ever."
- Earl Strickland
"Efren Reyes is a Genius and hes the best ever, he can play Pool, Billiard and Snooker. Hes the only guy that out hustled me in Snooker"
- Ronnie O' Sullivan

I played craps beside him once in Vegas. We had a heck of a run. We'd make a number, he'd grin that grin at me. Good times
Glad to have had a chance to meet him and play a rack against him. Very awesome and humble being.
He will always be the best player in my eyes. Even if he doesn't play anymore no one is better than him
To admit his age is catching and the weakness, show a humble human. He has no problem to let go to the new generation. Thats's the reason he is the greatest LEGEND.
it will take a lot of time before someone can par in his talent on billiard. i never seen until now who did a Z-Shot as he did in tournament
Love that guy! I tried to tell his friends to tell him that I know how to improve his health (eyes, mind and stamina). In 1-4 days he'll notice the differences.
The greatest of all time!
I am 83 and still love to PLAY AT this game. Efren is the GOAT and he still PLAYS THIS game like no one else.
No one stays at the top forever. Just like that old tough ass lion that kicked everyone's ass and took no prisoners you Sir was that tough old lion.And you left us with so many jaw dropping shots to remember you by. Thanks Efren Reyes for all of the great memories. And to some of us you'll always be the standard which all great pool players will be judged by.
He hasn't lost his "Magic". He's just gotten burnt out, the new and up and coming players to him is just another dance. He's been there, he's conquered every challenge, he's got the bumper sticker, the t-shirt, and the snow globe. There's really nothing else he can do. He hasn't lost the "Magic", he's just lost the passion. However, if someone comes up who is sensational and is shooting on a level that is out of this world, then Efren might come back to seriously play. When he does, then we'll get to see all of that knowledge, technical skill, and unique insight execute into beautiful works of Art. In order for that to happen, there needs to be a "cinder" to reignite the flame.
Humble to the extreme. True champ
Saw him play in February and he was just toying with people. The owner of my favorite room said he has been talking to Efren's people and Efren wants to tour the US again early in 21 btw
Take it easy old timer you've earned more respect than we could ever give you in this lifetime
He never fail to amaze everyone.
He is still playing brother . Everyweek he has new match in different places here in ph .
Watch here in jeffgaling vlogs .
He’s like the Garry Kasparov of pool. Even though he is no longer the legend that once was, he is still among one of the many great players of the game, and his remarkable contribution to the game is unlike everyone else. He truly left a great trace on the revolution of billiards.
Efren "Bata" Reyes "The Magician" your still the greatest pool player and your a hero special Filipino and proud to be Filipino
Proud to be na naman
ALL superstars eventually loose their edge, for one reason or another. For the most part it’s due to the aging process. Some of the very elite last longer at the apex of their sport than others but in the end there are NO exceptions. As they say, Mother Nature remains unbeaten and untied. And until someone else comes along to show me different, Efren Reyes will remain the best that has ever played the game. Most people that play or participate in this sport for a living will tell you the same thing.
From America, Long live Efren Bata Reyes. We love you Mr. Reyes. You've earned it and then some. Thank you.
the GOAT of pool
You should have picked the godly shots he played all this years .. all you pick are the simple ones
Tumanda na si bata..legend can never be forgotten.
Eferen (the beta) Reyes star will never fade. He will always be known as the greatest player ever.
He will always be the best
Incredible player!!
He should make a book of his techniques and strategies in Billiard
Still simple and humble.
Efren Bata.
Im lucky to have efren playing in my table...
The GOAT of Billiards...
the man's 2.5 million to the good. let him go home and enjoy retirement. surely pool manufactures would pay well for his endorsement.
Once you become a legend, the title never goes away, and he is a legend forever!
He's a legend always be a legend.
I believe it’s pronounced “BA-TA”
The guy watches too much of his fave p*rn.
That is correct!
Yeah for fuck sake he pronounces it like BE-TA
It is actually pronounced buh-ta
Based on the videos I've seen that seem to want to show the same ten or less matches, he never lost. Since he never lost he is the undisputed GOAT. The only other GOAT I can think of that never lost was boxing legend Floyd Mayweather.
The humble and skill of filipino like efren, Pacquiao, catriona are the best.
What a humble legend!
He will never lose the magic. Age cannot steal your accomplishments.
Don't worry Efren, you have nothing to prove ... not even Father Time can beat you .... Efren forever 🙌
When I first seen him I thought, who let this bum into the tournament? Then he won the tournament and I’ve never doubted his ability since.
He doesn't play on tournaments nowadays. What he was doing is playing bet games in every city he visits!
What a humble personality .
i meet him, he is so simple
even he is millioner
@jessesam clearly you don't know him 😁
God sent him to us he’s a pool God and a great example of sports
men ship
The GOAT of billiards. Difficult to beat in his prime.
A legend is away a legend...
Respect the living legend🥰🥰THe Goat
“ The Best “
Goat
Pinoy champions are humble as always.
I will always admire this Hooman.
🤗🤗🤗
Real life uncle drew of billiards
Awesome❣👍😊
Legend is legend no matter what!
the man leaves Phillipine because no one want to play with him anymore and after all these years in the "ocean" , he go back to Phillipine because of the very same reason.
You are the best sir efren bata
We will Miss you Efren
Efren is the real GOAT. No doubts about that.
He will remain a legend dead or alive. He had given his best to the world. I felt like he joined competitions for his passion and to give pride to the Philippines. He remained simple and humble from when he started until now.
Mabuhay efren reyes
I just love his childish dance😁🤗
Yeah its life man, you defeat them all do it all, its time to retire, in the end it gets boring...
Legend has it the cue ball is still spinning
Im proud of him
Master!
How come your other video u said his name proper but not in this video.. its a careless mistake or u begining to dislike him..?
The best in history
Erfren my idol
Its a good thing that he didnt stay in the well and go for the bigger ocean
The best pool player. Unless a snooker player decides to play pool for a laugh
Hey try to decide if he is Reyes or Rayes. And learn how to pronounce Bata. This is painful to watch.
If my memory serves me right, he said in an interview that he is now suffering from gouty arthritis and he has a shoulder injury which hampers him from playing godlike in billiards.
The magic stays with the magician and what makes him legendary is his being humble.
You can never see him brag about his skills, he will just say that he got lucky.
Ask Bata to have a school for billiard
i hate is when he says bayta instead of bata
Nah im from philippines and efren still playing pool
Pls check your facts. Efren still plays in a lot of tournaments and money games. Look them up.
geometric mind!
Pronounce it " Bah-Tah"
Pepenga pa nga
rest in peace sir efren. ur magic will live forever.
Wtf, pinatay mo nmn agad si efren..
BOBO
Is the point of this video to clown on Reyes?? Pointless post. I hope you enjoy watching people age. At least he does it with Grace...
Efren "Bah-Tah" Reyes. Get that shit right
"Beta"??? Get it right or don't say the name of the greatest pool player of ALL TIME! Its "BATA" and it means "YOUNG" Efren's game at 60 was younger and fresher than most 20 something play professionals.
60's elevator music?
Bah tah! that's the Filipino word for a a kid, or a young boy, not " beyta!
First off, find another narrator. Whoever was talking mispronounced Bata, meaning the first time he heard of Efren was on the script he was handed. He probably knows nothing about pool. Secondly, "lost his magic"? If Michael Jordan lives to be a hundred and can't even dribble does that mean he lost his magic? If Mayweather loses a fight when he's 60, does that mean he lost his magic too? People will always age, their abilities will degrade, but their Legend comes from their greatest feats not from their weakest.
Rip the magician
rip? he is not dead
Efren "Beta" Reyes
Wala Yan sa lolo ko
Eh bat di namin kilala lolo mo
he is a humble person 👍
I have highest regards for him. His simple, cool, composed, humble, smiling personality, quick judgemental moves n focus on his ball with no expression of anger makes him admirable n legendary. He is really a magical player. His accurate moves are unpredictable. One would enjoy watching him play till the end. My highest salute to this greatest legend. May Almighty bless him.....💕🌹😊
Everyone ages and loses steadiness and power in their body parts. But if that's the reason you're "losing your legend", then you didn't really lose that legend.
THE REAL GOAT OF BILLIARDS, SECOND TO NONE...A LEGEND THAT' MAKE US PILIPINOS PROUD TO THE WORLD...
There will never be another "bata" reyes.
He is the goat of billiards.
