Salute to this two legends from PH
Efren & Django🇵🇭 and also they are the best tandem for me.
Reyes at his peak of his prime. But what impress me the most is his superb breaks in this game. Its very rare that i see Efren break that consistent. Wow this is a battle of 2 MAESTROS.
His break in the 3rd and final day of the match "The Color of Money" with Strickland was even better. He transformed after 2 days of terrible breaks and he came back from 17 racks under, as you probably know.
@@ugaugauga488 agreed. I noticed that too, but 1999-2000 was Efren’s Prime for sure.
I think he played so well here because him and Django are best friends. They've played each other hundreds if not thousands of times.
@@OrrosGG Efren's prime was in his 20's. No one could be him, he said so himself. He got banned from pool tournaments and quit pool for 5 years to learn 3 cushion billiards, and after a few years got banned from that because he kept winning those too. That's why he took his friend's name Cesar Morales and came to the US to hustle.
You also see Efren rarely miss but he did in rack 2 with the 6 ball because of his mistake not getting enough angle to pot it
I was rooting for Bustamante that time, he was such in great shape, but man Reyes just unstoppable in this match, that 9 racks in the row just unbelievable. Too bad they've met in the semis..
Efren used his left hand at 18:37 with a perfect position on the 6th amazing just amazing Legend!
He is Ambidextrous so if he wanted he could play with left hand only
I don’t know what he cant do he was meant for this
Well, that man should be made a national hero in his country. What a great great player. What a great human being as well🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼
Who’s the goat?
If Efren is no. 1, who’s no.2?
@@dwighthoward54321Earl or SVB
@@dwighthoward54321 Earl Strickland, maybe
The commentators are as exciting as efrens play. These guys had me laughing 🤣
Yeah they know how to make gibberish sound exciting. Such a different style of commentary between American and UK commentators.
The British one was the best one out of the pair honestly. The American one was super generic
The two legendary Filipino pool legends having one of the best matches in cue sports history
Thank you Matchroom Pool for posting this great video. Damn, this is incredible pool by Reyes. Truly one of his best games. He deserves the title of the GOAT, and was already beginning to get it back then, despite all the other incredible players. It took him another 15 years to truly prove it, not only in victories -- especially in the Derby City Classic games -- but also in the great money matches.
Sid's always reminded me of Monty Python's sportscaster skits.
Can see why they stopped winner breaks format
This upload has great picture quality compared to the other uploads of the same match!
Pro tip : you can watch series on flixzone. I've been using it for watching loads of movies recently.
@Trent Miles Yea, I've been watching on flixzone for since december myself :D
@Trent Miles Definitely, I have been using flixzone for months myself =)
Flixzone is a scam. Don't fall for the trap. These bots has the same comments everywhere.
Wow just wow "the magician" "the 🐐" an absolute display of greatness in pool 🎱
Only seen 2 vids and i love the uploads good work and keep it up.
The Best i've ever seen.....GoT Efren
Great Efren Reyes an unmatched pool player ever lived before on this planet he's got many things on him that make him the Goat the whole world loves you sir you put the pool in a superb level long live Bata Reyes.
If Bustamante did not scratch,he is possible to win victory,but both of them i will salute them.....
Awesome match. Efren Reyes is most definitely the GOAT when it comes to pool
My college days kaka miss
Efren went into God Mode… again
Efren is the goat
Such a legend.
The thing is, Bustamente, was cheering Reyes on, one ball at a time. That's his "Brother", as well as his opponent.
What a beautiful table. Gorgeous.
This semifinal was the ideal final
Beautiful REF!!!❤
14:01 that's a nice shot.
Woww grabe, grabe ang isang efren " Bata " reyes a.k.a " The magician " 1-3 halos hindi na pinatira si bustamante naiinip na sa kakaupo halos uminit ang pwet niya sa kakaupo HAHAH napahanga mo kami idol efren, hindi na kami magugulat kaya pala idolo ka ng lahat lalo na ang papa ko ❤ magaling din sa billard 🎱 ikaw ang "Da Greatest Player Ever n Da World," Mahal ka namin lahat. 🌏🐐🎱🎱🥇🥇🥇🏆🏆🏆🏆
Our legendary childhood heroes are still around, but so bittersweet to watch them at their peak…was a good time to be alive. #djangojeteyedpredatorfan4life
Parihas na magaling sa billiards...Bustamante lookalike zorin legaspi phillippine actor. 👍👍👍👍
Superb play.. well done ER! 👍🎱
Janggo ,,the most strongest in billiards breakballing,
i watched efren when he was in mid 20's here in the philipines if thre's only video camera by that time the (mirons)pr the viewers say this man comes from another planet and efren at the age of 20 if he is already in america i think no one can beat him even the best of the best american hustlers
Miss this kind of tournanent
Jim Amps up, Syd amps down. These two characters are trying to inject excitement into the play that doesn't need it. Almost hilarIOUS!
The British dude is a great commentator
Greatest performance in pool
Great fight, and the ref too
I forgot this match up that Django up 3-1 then Efren goes for 9 rack in a row. 🐐 Things.
11-4 same result as the 2022 semi final match between fransisco Sanchez Ruiz v Shane van boening
Best commentator ever
What venue is this? ( location).
I don't like the floor color, and the blue-black rug. It makes it too dark.
Organizers make sure to prevent all-Filipino finals. They always put them in the same bracket. This is an example.
Why did he have to call Efren old? He is ONLY 45 years old.... It is still young by any standards...
45 years is old for sports, it's past most players prime.
Old but gold
Jimmy White tan bueno como Efrén, así varios como por ejemplo Willy Mosconi o Earl Strickland, juegos que vale la pena ver.
Hell no, If they are as good as Efren, why most people, players, commentators, critics, and fans all says Efren is the GOAT..
Please pronounce Efren's name right! It's pronounced ray yes, not ray az.
Francisco's name is boost a montay, not busta montee. You all make my ears hurt.
Commenters: one loud American who has to speak, even if there's nothing to say, and a drunk Scotsman.
Canadian and Geordie actually
Bustamante juega vien. Pero no es rival para reyes
Makalla Tab is so pretty.
Gotta love the commentator lol
3:08 thought it was Zoren Legaspi lol
22yrs ago.
Michaela tabb never aged 😅
give sid a raise bro
"the Wiley old Efren Reyes" wtf?? It was 1999 he was just in his 40s. Wiley old means like a man who's crazy in his 60s or 70s my god these Commentators didn't relax at all 😂😅
The next year c bustamante nman ang nakapasok sa finals vs stickland. Kaso namatay ung anak ni bustamante kaya nawala focus nia
What's up with the grate in the floor!?!?
how did i watch this entire match and not notice that
I simply can't figure out if it's carpeting or real 😂
Reyes is the champion--yet commentator wants to be in spotlight… most annoying !!!!!
Great match, too bad Jay had to ruin it.
Si Goku at Vegeta ng billiards 😂
2 ông ở Phipps's mà oánh ghê thế.. Hjhj 😂😂😂. Kakaka.. Cùng Quê với nhau mà nói to thế.
Nag Bibilyar pala si tekla, si tekla ba yon?
One mistake coz you the game.
4 racks missing. bad job matchroom!
The 2nd best player of all time
@3:15 wait what?!!… at that year there was a player named mike lebron?? His father predicted a goat name 😁
Lebron is his surname so his father didn't predict anything. Also, Mike Lebron was a great player in his own right and really helped put Puerto Rico on the pool map in the 90s
Hahaha pwede diay
Who is the annoying commentator with the scottish accent at the beginning? Had to switch because he is painfully awful to listen to.. Talks quick.. then slow... the goes dull... the goes hyper... then sounds like he's about to burp & then moans out a sound.
洞口太大
buckets lol
Efren is lucky On breaks
Bustamante es bolollon en billar .. j j j
