Cook, 47, was the 1970 Stardust All-Around champion in Las Vegas and twenty-one years later, he won the 1991 Legends of One-Pocket. Martinez was a well-rounded fearless player at all disciplines.

STEVE "COOKIE MONSTER" COOK!!! So glad to see this one pop up, he was so smooth! Thanks Accu-Stats!!

[@dangoodhart]

Need more of Steve Cook

[@Dirtypool40-mk2]

This is just about the time I quit and went back to school. So great to see matched from this era. IIRC Steve Cook was considered one of the great movers of the two decades leading up to this match.

Steve used to play in the Thursday Night 8 ball tournament with a HUGE Calcutta at Kosta in Mansfield, Ohio in the 90s. Great player and great guy. RiP Cookie!!

[@jeffren70]

Rafael is one of the most interesting players to watch. He is always doing some sort of crazy shot with success.

[@shortydancer]

Any video with Grady is gold to me. Thanks Pat and team!

[@onepocket7101]

Wow looking forward to this one Pat. I have fond memories shooting in a tournament with Rafael in the Bay Area, he let me use one of his cues. I miss him. Great to see him and Cook play.

[@Silver-pm5iq]

Steve Cook was the man!

[@jeffarthur322]

Steve shot in a vnea league before his passing. Watched him run tables of 8 ball never touching a rail . Shot against him in match got one of three should have got two . Quiet unassuming man RIP Cookie

[@dshadow3173]

More Steve Cook one pocket videos, please!

[@HillbillyIslandLife]

The guy to the right of Steve in the blue button down shirt was Cooks road partner.

[@davidcarver3957]

What a great match by some great players !!!

[@billysikes1374]

I'd like to see more of Cook, I used to play a guy named David Carver in Fayetteville Nc

[@pommac10]

Thanks ! Raphael is a pleasure to watch ! (And don't forget me asking for the CJ Wiley vs Mizerak at Sands round 93' semi-final "best match ever?" )

[@dangoodhart]

I would like to see more of Steve Cook playing pool.Dan B

[@ranchopatriot]

90's fashion. I think I had Steve's outfit.

[@HillbillyIslandLife]

I think that's his favorite outfit

[@michaelshortridge6379]

Great match. Both made some really great shots. Steve Cook is G.O.A.T of one pocket. Of US players.

[@dangoodhart]

Are there any more of Steve Cook

[@AccuStats]

Yes, the finals against Mizerak around 1998.

[@CKC-gk2dh]

What great fundamentals by Rafael. Stays so still and his head never moves.

[@dangoodhart]

Steve would play exhibitions at the Journeys End in Tampa. Dan Bowers . We would play Chess. He was the Best. Ask Alan Hopkins?

[@gpayneinc]

Man I wanted to see that 5 ball bank

[@rogerscottcathey]

14:52 I don't understand why he had to spot a ball after that shot.

[@Mikebauero]

Was Grady ever wrong about anything in one pocket ? Just love how he would over talk the other guys and their opinions.

[@WiredSpace]

Is any pool player ever wrong about anything? 😂

[@billysikes1374]

And Bill stiffed poor Grady out of dinner, AGAIN lol

[@CarlCramer88]

I don’t know how this pool hall was back in the day. But nowadays it’s straight trouble. And in a rough part of town where people show up not to shoot pool but to look for problems.

[@HillbillyIslandLife]

Who let this NIT on here.......lol

[@researcher3981]

Steve Cook Won the one-pocket, and the all around at the Stardust 1970..won 9-ball 1993

[@researcher3981]

After watching this waste of time, I now know where Scott Frost learned who to play slooow!
