I play with an 88 year old man every week he's not as good as Reyes but he can beat me everyonce in a while. 😊 We call him pops in town awesome birthday pool tournaments
Not anymore the king is in this video though. SVB. SVB won more us open titles than Efren ever could have , and Efren tried and loss. In fact SVB just won the us open 9ball for 2022. SVB is the KING and living legend now, Efren was okay in his time just as Buddy Hall, The Miz, Minnesota fats and many others. But SVB surpassed Efren by far in achievements and skill
01:12:20 - "For shooting, no problem, but sometimes you lose your mind." Lmao Only Efren Reyes can tell that to Shane Van Boening. Much respect between these two champions.
That is REAL scary. All the sources have said that Efren, in 1973-1974, broke two racks of Rotation and ran out all balls on both of those tables, while playing for exemplary position play
@@SlickRick4EVER I just heard Tony Robles saying the craziest thing he ever saw in all of his day playing pool was when he saw Efren run out a straight pool rack on a snooker table with smaller-than-average holes right-handed, then left-handed, without missing a shot.
Efren's awesome. he doesn't understand what they're asking about with aiming systems cos he's never had to struggle with it. He's always been a natural. He's a feel player.
Many players out of my pool hall waste so much time calculating shots with mathrmatics just to miss them with bad execution of the stroke. It's mind boggling and I hate playing them. I'd rather play someone who just shoots and their aim is on autopilot from just playing a lot of games.
@@SpaceboyBilliardsRight. Just because you know the angle doesn't mean you know the speed needed for the leave. Figuring Angles is step one, figuring the speed of the cue ball on that angle... That's a whole nother level, that's the difference between good and great, great and legendary. It's all about the smallest details
This whole questioning session makes me feel like they want efren to tell them every one of his secrets lol , it’s like a homeland security questionnaire lol
In the Philippines, most parents consider playing pool as a vice because of how they get addicted to the game, plus the gambling part. But those who doesn't listen become monsters in pool.. :)
@@lo0ksik Thats not being stupid. Elite guys that come out of hundreds of players who spend countless hours in pool tables are so rare. In the Philippines, if you won't make it pro in pool, you'd end up in the streets. Even if you make it to pro, it doesn't pay much. Most of elite player's in Ph earnings come from gambling if they cant make it pro internationally. A responsible parent wouldn't want take that risk for their kids.
I effing love Shane, esp at a time when he was beating most of our great Filipino cue artists. Showed a lot of respect and humility. He’s easily among top10 greats.
Love this interview! Having 2 of the best players in 1 room just hanging out and casually talking about about pool! Cant really get much better than this!
@ Ric Juliano: Efren was so good he had trouble finding competition to play for money so he stopped playing pocket billiards in 1976 to take up carom (three cushion billiards), which used to be popular in the Philippines. But he became so good at carom that, like pool, nobody wanted to play him. So he returned to pocket billiards.
Thanks for your response, I thought he stopped playing for some other reason. I knew then when I was watching him played in the mid 70’s that he’s having problem finding competition both in pocket billiards and carom ‘coz he's so good that nobody wants to play him for money anymore. The good thing is he decided to come to U.S. and the rest is history. Efren’s knowledge in pool, I believe is a big contribution to the history of the sport and no doubt about it, many considered him probably as the greatest pool player of all time. Mabuhay ka Bata!
***** The best players alive, 90% of disagree with you. Let's put it another way; pick another player and then lets you and I bet $50,000 and ask 10 great players who they think the best ever was. If more of them pick yours than efren you win.
Mike Siegel and Nick Varner are two players Efren admires. Is he trolling us? Personally, I admire Efren and Shane. Both are great players and humble as well.
Here in ph if you are going to play with skilled player you can ask for "partida" (idk what's the english of it) sometimes they choose no "plangketa"(idk again, its a shot like efren did) and you will see they will beat you easily even without "plangketa"
I played rotation a lot with some Filipino guys years ago and it's fairly simple. Basically the foul rules are: 1. If I take a shot (say on the 1) and miss it, the other guy has 2 options: play the shot form where it finishes or pick up the 1 and cue ball. Spot the 1 and then have ball in hand with the white behind the balk line. If there are other balls near / on the spot, the 1 is placed behind them. 2. If I have a tough shot on, say, the 1 and it's obvious that I deliberately didn't try to shoot the 1 (a bit controversial usually) then you can call me on that and call it a foul. I have the option to either play it as it ends up of make you take the shot again, putting the cue ball and 1 back where they were (like in snooker). That's pretty much it really. Other than that it's like 9 or 10 ball in the sense that you run the balls in order. You get the face value the ball you pocket (can be combo too) and the first to 61 wins. Total of the balls is 120. It's a good game. It can get very tactical.
Sounds fun. Gotta try it! Here in Utah among us polynesians, we play a game called "Numbers". Same rules as 9 ball but with all 15 balls. You don't win by making the 15 ball though. Every ball you make you collect at the end of your turn. At the end of the game you count the balls you pocketed by the numbers on the balls. For example: the game is over and i only pocketed the 2, 6, 7, and 15. My points total for the game is 30. Player with the highest points wins the game and money. Usually every player pays $5-$10 a game. And you can play with 2-5 players. Really fun game especially when you win lol
The key to winning in rotation , from what I have seen, is letting the opponent pocket the small number balls and try to get on the table and run the 10 thru 14 which will give you 60 plus any small balls you may have pocketed. If you get on the table say at the 8 or 9, you have less interfering balls and a better chance to run out to 60 points. Of course the other guy has to miss and you have to have a good shot to start. Looks like a fun game for two fairly evenly skilled players. I have never played it, but would try.
Thank you for hosting this excellent discussion. Two of my favorite players answering questions. Both of them are gentlemen and represent the sport exceptionally well.
English isn't his first language. Give that guy a break. At least he's trying and not to mention he's the fucking king and legend in that area no question about it. But sure give some respect. Teaching him how to speak the language is probably the best that you can offer him
Yes! That's what I'm thinking too. And these two kids will learn from him and then bad guys come around and so they beat some asses protecting mr miyagi
Maaan idk what it is about these two players but they are just my all time favorite pool players. I just love there demeanors and their skill, passion and attitude for the game i guess! Efren will always be number one in my eyes tho! But shane is right there in 2nd
Host: do you play any other games than pool? Shane: “mmm i play monopoly” 🤣😂🤣 I love this guy. Top 3 favorite sports players of all time. Just a class act
They were laughing at SVB for not having a world championship then, but now he has so many and the #1 pool player in the world, far surpassing Efren and running circles around him. 👑
BRING BACK TAR!!!!!!! I WISH I KNEW HOW TO MAKE THIS BOLD TYPE!!!!!!! I've seen Earl play the Russian Pyramid in an exhibition game. I would love to see one of these two do the same. Efren's 2245 response says it all.
Thank you for posting. Very informative. They're both great and have great attitude. Both are cool guys. I'm an Efren fan but Shane won my respect for his incredible technique and his down-to-earth attitude. Where are these TAR matches?
Host: “What kinda fish do you eat?” Efren: “Milk Fish!” 🤣🤣 The way he said it instantly took me back to It’s Always Sunny when Charlie says his favorite food is Milk Steak. Efren in Philippines: “I’m gonna want the Milk Fish boiled over hard, and a side of your finest polvorón, raw.”
It's an actual fish, popular in the Philippines, Indonesia and Taiwan... unique to the region. I don't think it's exported outside Southeast Asia. Its flesh is perfectly white, like it has no blood. It's also a little fatty.
At 54:10 Efren said he stopped playing in 1976 and start playing again in 1981, I wonder why. I become a big fan of Efren seeing how good he played during those years 1974-76...really amazing. Although Parica was still the no. 1 player in the Philippines that time, I knew then that sooner Efren will end up the better of the 2.. 'coz i'm seeing something totally different in his stroke and his unbelievable knowledge how to play the game.. something magical no one can do except him.. and it didn't take long and they call him "The Magician" when he started playing in U.S.
Ric Juliano i have watched the story of efren including his interview about his life he stopped playing that time because in the next years in every game he lose... so he lose hope and he said he never want to play again but his friend told him "what if its like turning table? You always win in every of your game this time... just try and try... efren listened and thats it , he became the great player called the magician...
1:12:20 "If you don't know the shot, then I can show to you for, how to, think the game. But for shooting, no problem. But sometimes you lose your mind." LOLLL
30:00 I don't know if Shane actually understood Efren saying balkline. There's a great vid of Efren playing balkline against Raymond Ceulemans, refereed by Eddy Leppens and commentary by Blomdahl. 3 of the GOAT in carom.
every snooker pro does and so its most popular for decades in eu and UK especially and exports from there afaik. Have tips changed that much i started using tigers instead of elkmaster maybe 5 year ago when i stopped playing
21:31 efren gets a lil bored so he plays a perfect one handed cross table stop shot with pure instict for no reason. what a LEGEND
The world needs more Efrens and Shanes. These two guys are really awesome!
Tear to my eyes my two favorite players playing the old and the new
Can’t believe this was 9 years ago. Efren said if his hands shake he’ll retire, so happy he’s still playing at such a high level
I play with an 88 year old man every week he's not as good as Reyes but he can beat me everyonce in a while. 😊 We call him pops in town awesome birthday pool tournaments
I really admire how shane helps efren to absorb the questions better
I think it goes to show shanes natural ability to get past communication barriers. Hes really a gem of a champion. Very humble.
Shane as well had speech impediments when he was younger so he knows what it’s like
@@richardmg9903 Shane was also born deaf
efren has a heart of gold, just so pure, no ill thoughts, just enjoys playing and having fun
This may be one of the coolest pool vidoes thats isnt a match on the internet. Great stuff here. Efren Is KING.

They say that Efren's teeth are gone he ended up with a different accent from the rest of his fellow from filipino
they probably understand every too with just hand gestures
I love Shane man. He is so genuine and amazing. What a fantastic dude.
He's like Efren, down to Earth, no arrogance like some of the others who boast about being the best.
01:12:20 - "For shooting, no problem, but sometimes you lose your mind." Lmao Only Efren Reyes can tell that to Shane Van Boening. Much respect between these two champions.

I think he meant 'you lose concentration'. It came out funny.
I'd tell the same to Shane as it's true, he loses concentration. I'm just not starstruck like most folk.
Just now proven at the Mosconi Cup 2023 😂
You captured some real gems in this casual Q&A interview. I loved when Shane showed us his cue bag. Keeping it real!

It’s been awhile since the interview but Strickland said he still uses Elkmaster tips
