  • "Captain Hook" Mike Sigel vs "The Scorpion" Johnny Archer, from the 1993 US Open 9-Ball Championship. Both of these players were ranked in the top 3 on the Pro Billiard Tour points list. This was a match on the one-loss side, as both players had lost to Tony Ellin and the winner of this match would get a rematch against Ellin and would be guaranteed at least third place.
    Grady Mathews and Ed Sheahan provide commentary for this one.

  • @hunterfisherpokerpoolguy7502

    Geez, the ESPN automatic camera and the crew were so annoying. I never thought the close up shots (where they showed the view from inside the pocket) were appealing anyway. Of course, the exposure for pool was great.

    I was at that “Chicago Tournament”.. Johnny won the lag and ran 13 and out against Efren in the finals.. And that’s how you handle the Magician..
    Strongest thing I saw in those 2 weeks was both Bustamante and Efren politely declining Buddy’s stakehorse offer to “win as much as you carry out the door”.. lol..
    That was the 2nd time I saw Efren decline an offer to play Buddy..

    I can gamble right there at the house.

    Honestly im not a fan of Mike Sigel stroke. He used to strike the ball harder than necessary, and its prone to wable thats why he used to have some unnecessary amd uncharacteristic gimme misses. In that era, i prefer EFREN's stroke and in today's era i prefer ALBIN OUCHAN's stroke with more finess.

      I am also 71 years old.
      I don't know Johnny but I saw him play
      And I believe it was North ridgeville Ohio one time. It was a $10,000 tournament and he won it.
      He had a nice seven rack run.
      Also Tony Allen was at the tournament when I saw Johnny Archer.
      It was sometime in the '80s I believe.
      Mid or early '80s

    I find it fascinating Efren emulated Mike above everyone, but mentions Strickland and Hopkins but never mentions Irving Crane . . . Guess Crane's fame never reached the Philippines . . and if course I don't know if he ever played Crane

      @LeonFleisherFan Před rokem +2

      By the time Efren came to the States, Irving's career as a player was over. It's true he was invited to some Straight Pool tournaments because he was a legend and an asset to the sport, but the last time I remember seeing him participate was in the eighties, long before Efren ever entered his first Straight Pool tournament. Besides, Efren was never interested in Straight Pool (sadly, I love the game and he might have done wonders for its popularity), so I wouldn't be surprised if they never even met in person?

      As a former pool player
      I guess we all had our line of crap.
      It's a tough game mentally because people are always trying to talk you out of a shot.
      Except for the gentleman players that would let you rise to your ability when you're at the table.
      Some people just call it respect.
