[@dorscanseco4207]

Grabe, nagtatagsl ang laban sa isang bola na lang

[@daviddixon2829]

I just hope one day pool commentators will be paid as well as other sports broadcasters!! Guys like Nick should be rewarded for their knowledge of the game!! JJ no slouch either!

[@vhashimoto5950]

Efren Reyes the magician & Humble player of Billiard. Mabuhay Idol 🎉🎉🎉

[@kilnmaster]

if you ever seen Efren Reyes in the Philippines he is the most humble, real Filipino you will ever see. flip flops and disheveled, greasy fingers from eating buffalo wings while with his buddies.. Yet can you believe with all the billiard professionals here, there is NO Filipino pool museum.. Ive lived here for 5 years now.. seen them all at local pool halls.. or grocery shopping.. love it..

[@ranchopatriot]

Fantastic commentating team.

[@roadrunner381]

Always good to hear Varners perspective on the shots, hope he does more commentary!👍

[@calie01915]

New to one pocket and love strategy play. Lion and Efran. The best to watch. Jj and nick great commentary

[@meowc2368]

Efren and Alex 1p with Ken as emcee/referee and double J and Nick Varner commentating. Perfectenschlag!

Efren “GOAT” Reyes

[@rosavilmailagan9700]

I don't know how to play this game but I'm enjoying watching efren bata reyes🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@davidmoore4953]

I don't care for 1 pocket but that was a great match

[@JimJones-kk8pb]

I care for all the pockets and that was a great match

[@ironhat2]

great match great commentating. thanks guys

[@jadezee6316]

Reyes still as sharp as he always has been at one pocket which requires strategy more than pure ball making which can tax even a legend at 69 years old

[@nickelassr1857]

That takes some elephant sized balls right there!😭😃. You got to love varner

[@cuemakindude]

I was sitting next to Efren in this match....I mean when he was sitting that is. (and that wasn't much)

[@dukeofphantom4383]

You sat next to a legend 🤭❤️

[@emamadra3472]

I saw you. lucky guy . 😲

[@dorscanseco4207]

Dont put the letters front tghe video, no seen.

[@mikecabral1579]

That was really a great match I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for sharing.

[@sfincione2000]

For me, this was like the final. Great game.

[@rainman2671]

Awesome game. Love this shit.

[@Colin9Ball]

33:55 great commentary

[@bmitw100]

Efern's cue is starting to look like Earl's. Great wedge battle & banks!

[@danny_5283]

Yeah for some reason he was hiding the Predator branding.

[@ralphwatten2426]

Wow what a game. To me it's like watching a 500 mile NASCAR race. Starts out fine, goes on for a long time, all of a sudden there's a big one and then it's over. I think the players were getting a little tired and missed a few shots they would have made otherwise. I've never seen a one pocket match before. It might be a while before I do again.

[@williamburdon6993]

2 of my favorite commentators

[@_Ramen-Vac_]

Riveting match! ...til there's like 45 minutes left, then seeing how he does the magic is the suspense.

[@undeadknight8840]

33:56 naughty jeremy

[@TristanColgate]

One pocket is absolutely fascinating. It's not something we ever hear of in the UK. Also, just wanted to say that I'm absolutely loving the DCC. It's a real shame that the Mosconi (when it's over in the UK anyway), seems to be going for the raucous Darts vibe, it's quite embarassing. For me, the DCC feels like pure pool, and the respect the audience and the players give the game and their opponents is much more akin to the snooker I grew up watching and playing.

[@neuvocastezero1838]

Clash of the Titans right here.

[@ammoalamo6485]

I swear that table is not level down at the 1-p holes. On both sides way too many shots have drifted off line in the last foot, half a foot for the table to be judged as 'level.'

[@XfaCrux]

Cuando se realizó el partido???

[@Ipanksquid29_12.]

Aku pencinta 9 ball.

[@brucefarnham6616]

This is pool with the Best of the Best

[@Shinyboy29]

Varner should come back to play pool if he still can, he was one of Reyes’s tough est rivals in the 80s and 90s

[@PostUp_Time]

*IRE: Efren: IMAGINE HOW MUCH MONEY WAS OFFERED TO EFREN FOR HIS PRODUCT ENDORSMENT. IF HE USED YOUR CUE, YOUR, CHALK, YOUR GLOVE , YOUR IPOD, ANYHING*

[@nenethpadrique7799]

Walang kopas pinakamagaling Bata.

[@min8882]

Nada del otro mundo..he visto mejores jugadores que desafortunadamente no pueden ir a esos torneos porque no tienen apoyo económico en nuestros países

[@haydenwalton2766]

great match. alex sure had his chances though

[@jimtwotowns931]

Nick just cant accept the fact that efren is the GOAT of pool because at some point he beat him

[@RemkoDuursma]

beautiful 2-railer at 43:03 !

[@hectorsamame6158]

Y seguira siendo el mejor..mientras juegue con metedores de bolas. Bata Reyes es billarista(la teoria de los diamantes,calculo)por eso es superior hasta hoy. Por que no juega tres bandas o libre y no mas juega pool..por es mas conercial y gana dinero.😮

[@PostUp_Time]

*KEYBOARD TIP, BOARD WITH SHOOTER DELAYS, CLOCKS, ETC...* *"L" ADVANCES 10 SECONDS* *J" REWINDS 10 SECONDS, IF WANT TO SEE THAT SHOT AGAIN!* *"K" PAUSES* _KEYBOARD ARROWS, ADVANCE AND REWIND 5 SECONDS!!_ _aint that great_

[@theawesomnes3848]

32:26 can someone explain to me how Alex had -1 here he made 2 balls into his pocket and scratched and he originally had 0 as the score so shouldn’t he be at 1 ball here and not -1 but if he didn’t make a ball he’d be at -1 but he made 2 into his pocket just someone please explain the time is 32:26 whenever Alex scratched and made Alex’s ball count -1 I’m just so confused how it’s -1 and not just 1

[@Upscale4]

Game starting 3:55

[@kalanzartwork7323]

Do they still have to hit a objective ball and rail to count as a safety

[@NineballChris]

No. Sometimes they foul on purpose for a good safety. They will just roll up on a ball with no rail. Take a foul and owe a ball but a killer safety to put a opponent in jail lol.

[@Iwbenny]

Worlds longest game and Jeremy didn’t stop talking once

[@ml.2770]

43:20 😮

[@hellyeah2299]

Nick Varner still calling him Efrom. For fks sake somebody tell him the name of the greatest pool player ever.

[@ammoalamo6485]

Game 3 Efren had some really bad luck with his corner balls rolling off just a little bit in the last few inches of travel. Little Canadian gremlins, maybe? But he finally ovecame all of them to win the game.

[@kkuwait4190]

i still have no clue how this game works, but i like it xD

[@sews1523]

actually i do have a clue

[@BillMorganChannel]

Constructive advice ... perhaps begin with explaining how to play ...

[@jacksonv1ll836]

Maybe AL tried to test the stamina of the magician and later his arthritis hurt him off😁

[@anthonyhernandez6477]

Incredibly grateful for these matches @accu-stats! Hope to get out to a derby one year and see these tanks go at it

[@dorscanseco4207]

Kakaantok tong larong ganito.

[@RemkoDuursma]

commentator sounds like john goodman!

[@Richardtola1]

Is this live?

[@djamo1969]

No, this was from this year’s Derby City Classic in January.

[@nickturner2813]

How the fck could it be live when it's possible to FF to the end of the match?

[@Duffyyy94]

36:08

[@Arsenal-Tengu]

Why did Alex hit the 4 so hard at 2:22:01? He only needed 1 to win that rack.

[@Duffyyy94]

He felt if he dead rolled it that his chances to make it would decrease to an unacceptable percentage in his mind, and if he *shot* it, with more of a stroke, that he was a favorite to make it probably 9/10 in his mind. So in other words, he is going for the win. Taking control of the shot instead of relinquishing it to the mercy of the table by dead rolling it. Most of the time with these great players, when they have a chance to win, they take it b/c they know how good they execute.

[@algiwilis]

what is reyes cue?

[@danny_5283]

Predator with Z3 shaft. Probably a BK2 butt. For whatever reason, he was hiding the branding with that blue tape.

[@levhugh]

I think Efren Is having trouble with his vision . May be time for eyeglasses or contacts ! He missed a lot of shots .

[@felipecapellan6248]

Que es lo k están jugando me tienen con sueño pork no es one poker

Efrem. Varneq.

[@MrKeysersoze1981]

if i were a kid looking at pool and watched this game i would play fortnight instead

[@Shinyboy29]

One pocket rules can be quite boring to watch compared to 8 ball or 9 ball

[@raymundorosario3108]

bakit puro mintes hahahaha

[@c.fredihehanusa8825]

two legends playing the most boring game in pool

[@kardRatzinger]

What happened at 1:25:17? Efren fouled, and didn't lose a point or his turn at the table?

[@brianmurphy4016]

He only moved one ball, and this is not an all-balls-foul event. It was Alex's option to put it back or leave it.

[@graydude4698]

👽 .... .. thx.

[@banalhumabon5213]

In comparison to Pagulayan and Reyes, I salute Reyes being a patriotic Filipino. Pagulayan chanced to be a Canadian resident after he got the chance to represent Philippines. Now, ayaw pa nyang mag Tagalog dahil Canadian na daw ang loko.

[@kevindubois5897]

Do you not have to make contact with a ball in this game?

[@bryanspriggs5045]

I think alex let him have a pass😢

[@joshklonowski5393]

I tell ya this guy just loves hearing himself talk. So much bs comes from his mouth just talking hypothetical. I enjoy nick but the other guy makes the match almost unbearable to watch.

[@rogeliocortez4119]

It’s a boring game to me

[@alistairs8495]

1p is an acquired taste, but it combines straight pool and 9 ball ( in terms of position play ) and even some carom billiards all in one game. Once you get a feel for how and why players make the shots they do, it becomes more exciting to watch. Search for Shannon Daulton v. Brandon Shuff Hotseat Match for a somewhat faster pace game with less defensive play.

[@georgymartynov]

What name of this game? I did not understand the rules.

[@danny_5283]

@@georgymartynov One pocket. Look up "How to play one pocket" on KZbin and you'll find some instructional videos.

[@molonlabe1033]

I understand playing defense but playing hide the ball without dropping any is kind of a chicken shit way to play the game .
