- The 1998 Legends of One Pocket Semi-Finals between Shannon Daulton and Efren Reyes.
Daulton was a two time winner of this title, and was on a ten match winning streak, after losing his opening round match.
Reyes is plain and simple, the GOAT. The best all around player that the game has ever seen.
This was a race to four, and it’s a long one. Get comfortable and watch two of the best one pocket players that 1998 had to offer.
Stick around for the interview with the winner, after the match.
Bill Incardona and Grady Mathews provided the commentary.

I’ve seen this a billion times. It’s one of the greatest matches of all time.
A billion times?
@@genghisk4808 a billion times.
@@genghisk4808 he's been watching it at 100 times speed for 25 years
342,465.75 years according to ChatGPT at regular speed
@@genghisk4808 Total time in hours = 3,000,000,000 hours
Total time in days = 3,000,000,000 hours / 24 hours/day
Total time in days = 125,000,000 days
Therefore, it would take approximately 125,000,000 days to watch a 3-hour video a billion times.
one of the very best 1 pocket matches ever! and thanks for including the post match interview with Shannon...excellent production all around
Thank you Pat and co for sharing such a gem!
Insane match! Thanks Pat! Man was Shannon a great 1P player (still is). Those banks.. OMG
Great match -- kept ya glued right here, didn't wanna miss a thing!!! Thanks! Be Safe
I met Grady at Snaps pool room in Albany GA in about 93, very cool exhibition they put on. I miss that place and time
I remember when Granny come to snaps Jimmy Wales is Daddy on the place and how was Jim housing I was there a good bit
My name is Jim Houston and I'm from Albany Georgia and I remember snaps very well
Great stuff, thank you Pat.
What a great match this is unbelievable Shannon has no fear
To think as good as Shannon was back then he needed weight to gamble with efren. I never saw the old time one pocket players but I can’t imagine they could handle efren in his prime
I agree Shannon would need weight. I am an admirer of Shannon but some of the banks he missed were egregious. This is the last time Efren lost in one pocket for like ten years, isn't that right?
@@maicolc7216 I think that’s correct
What a great match, both sides.
I have to say I have really liked Billy's commentaries and I have really liked Grady's commentaries over the years, but when they were together the atmosphere they created was often a bit unpleasant and distracting.
Great one pocket match
I just heard Grady Matthews talk about Freddy the beard I read part of his book but did he really play that good of banks
Exciting finish.
Greatest bank pool player ever. SHANNON THE CANNON DAULTON
No two ways about it; both played v. well. And while there weren't massive // egregious rolls, instead, Daulton got ~9 either small-beneficial rolls or was the beneficiary of Efren getting slightly-bad rolls ... whereas Daulton also got ~2 bad rolls (not coming up with a shot after the excellent bank). In composite, resulting in a total of ~6 more rolls that either hurt Efren slightly or helped Daulton slightly. Two of which resulting in Efren scratching (-1) vs getting 3-4 balls in the final game alone.
And despite all the bad rolls Effie got, he _still_ got the score to 7-6 ..!
So while no one can say Daulton didn't play a speed perfectly compatible with winning ... it's the almost invisible rolls that were (IMO) decisive. Anyone smart enough to notice them can't help but get annoyed by a ratio of 4:1 to either your detriment or your opponent's benefit..?
Though often...people NEVER notice such little 'ticky' rolls (esp. when they benefit them or hurt their opponent) ... whereas they certainly see those which hurt them. Observers tend to only think rolls where you hit 6 balls, removing two from your opponent's pocket & putting 2 in front yours while both hooking & trapping your opponent constitute a "roll." But in reality ...? One colossal roll rarely decides matches. I wish my opponents got only the massive rolls (all at once) instead of a bunch of subtle, minute, ticky rolls on 10-20% of their shots. THAT'S a benefit evenly matched opponents can't outrun.
The major rolls I noticed..?
The 2 shots Efren scratched on in the last game,
CB rolled off so that Daulton wasn't tree-topped & table length near the top-right pocket.
CB rolled off hooking Efren after Daulton kicked 2-rails removing a ball near Effie's pocket (near top right again).
The only 'roll' that 'hurt' Daulton was not getting a shot after making an excellent bank. But he did that.
At 6-5 ... Shannon of course cut the ball in and got so close to scratching he was corner hooked.
If I missed rolls that redownded to Efren's benefit ... pls LMK the times.
Shannon sporting the 90s Tommy jeans!!!
Daulton may have been the inspiration for Bobby on King of the Hill.
Math is hard
Efren looking like uncle suave who likes to drink and smoke cigars all day lol
Grady's 🏫 of dead balls 😂
those really were some excellent observations I thought.
@@trumanhw yes indeed
👽 thx
I’m sick of being right all the time. Write down something wrong I can say.
how come they keep getting the score so wrong????
At this period in time, Shannon was playing some of his BEST one pocket. 48 players. Who in the world could have beaten that guy in this event?
@hunterfisherpokerpoolguy7502but he didnt
God, this game is just dragging and making me feel crazy....I must not be understanding the game they are playing...it isn’t 9 ball, it isn’t straight pool...what the heck is it called? HELP! PLEASE! Somebody please tell me what is the name of the game they are playing? I apologize for my ignorance!
t's called one pocket. each player chooses a pocket where to pot the balls in. typically it's either left or right for each player. typically # of balls to pocket in tourneys depending on handicap is 8 or 7. it's a precision game and somehow a chess game itself. it requires a good amount of ball control, positioning and strategy to win. it's not a typical 9 ball game where missing is not that as crucial.
I don't understand anything what this game is lol

LOL. THE COMMENTATOR WHISTLING EVERYTIME THERE IS AN S IN A WORD HE SAYS.
Some people think it was part of Grady's charm.
Then again, some people speak in all caps.
@@trumanhw you call the whistling charm. I call it annoying.
The old fart is just right every time. Even when it turned out that he was dead wrong.
My grandpa is the same when watching me play. I agree that he’s kind of annoying and is never wrong or anything. But I do find his commentary comforting in a way
Too bad Billy wouldn't stop arguing and learn something from one of the greatest one pocket minds of all time. Glad he has simmered down in later years - you don't hear him mouthing off to JJ like that.
OMG that kick at 1:45:45. That was spooky to watch. Grady hit that same shot on me at his house in SC. I went for lessons and wound up winning a little of it back. I got lucky and hit a hero shot. I still remember when we discussed afterwards "well you didn't have to hit it that good." We were playing for peanuts by his standards but he was legit pi$$ed. Always the competitor. RIP
First off billy knew every bit as much about one pocket as greedy matthews and billy and his prime could have played greedy dead even one pocket and billy has probably played a hundred thousand games of one pocket
uh, most people found their banter amusing ... he actually didn't argue more than is required by people trying to be as truthful as possible for the benefit of the viewers, whose edification is the primary goal. If you don't realize their skill levels were so close as to have scant evidence at best to justify either thinking they were superior to the other, you just don't know their respective abilities. FYI, Billy was lifetime winner over Grady.
@@John-jl4to Exactly. Wade just sounds like a douche IMO. :)
I like The Freezer as an announcer
Langweilig
nope ludwig, thats actually very interesting
@@pavlosgermanidis2754 ich weiß ja das dass taktische Spiel interessant ist
At the 1:13:30 Shannon jumped the ball that is not a good shot that should be foul jumping in one pocket should not be allowed it takes the beauty of the game
You're allowed to jump the ball in one pocket but you have to use your playing cue.
