USA, thank you for these videos.

[@rickyreum2628]

He certainly humbled him🤣🤣🤣Hill hill and Efren won because of a mistake. Nick plays safe and Efren loses. Fact

[@lesterweinheimer665]

These are two of the nicest guys that ever played the game! They like and respect each other! Nick Varner was winning everything from 88 to 90. Efren didn't start winning major tournaments until 7 or 8 years later! Then he has dominated pool Both great great players!! They have played many many great matches.

[@danielgaines5374]

Excellent comment! As good a rivalry as Minnasota Fats and Willy Masconi. Same personalities.

[@johnroach5332]

To this day Nick is a very humble, great guy. Always a pleasure to get to see and talk to him.

[@ThePdog3k]

One of the closest matches of all time with the two greatest players to ever live.

[@johnbeecher1108]

Nick is not a man that needs humbling. He is as humble as they come, naturally. And he put a few beatings on Efren over the years.

[@poolpassion]

never seen Efren beaten by this guy. do you know a match so we can watch

[@LifeCycle1978]

@@poolpassionnice try. These guys played at a time when not everything was recorded. Per the WPA scorecard, Nick has beaten Efren in just under 50% of their meetups although Efren won the bigger matches. It’s okay to be a fanboy, just make sure your love for a player doesn’t overshadow the facts or distort who o other players are.

[@johnbeecher1108]

@@poolpassion , Nick won 9 out of either 11 or 13 tour stops in i believe it was 1989. So theres a pretty good chance that he toom Efren out at one of those, assuming Efren was in the states that year. So thats where i would look.

[@kiminielee28]

you just assume at the end of the day. its better we see the real prrof of that ​@@johnbeecher1108

[@dalekinney8726]

I think he is just metaphorically speaking in the title. You can tell he has mad love for Efren. You are also correct though in regards to the fact that Nick is a very humble man. I just watched a Strickland vs Reyes match and the immaturity that Strickland showed was appalling and very disheartening as an American…. Reminded me of a child who needed his a** busted 😂

[@VenugopalanV-v5x]

This is the closest match I have seen of Efren. But, I always hold Efren as the All Time Greatest Player. He has the extraordinary skill, unbelievable humbleness that shows that apart from his skill, he also had the rare wisdom which had helped him at the most difficult period in a tough match situations.

[@egroegartfart]

What is sad is that this tournament over 30 years agohad a bigger payout than a lot of pro tournaments today. I remember pool used fo be on ESPN. The prize money was great. Hopefully its starting to make a come back again now.

Rack 6's break for me is the best ever. What a monster break!

[@wolfie5]

I find all these videos about Efren offensive with the nonsense clickbait making his opponent look a horrible person. So I make sure I never see the channel again. Love Efren - hate the nonsense.

[@jlobiafra]

The efren groupies are the most annoying fan base I've ever came across

[@Bobba8590]

You are absolutely right

[@niklastorshagen6365]

I gave up watching after one minute and went straight to the comment section

[@chuckyboog]

How does saying he humbled his opponent make the opponent out to be a terrible person, it's hardly a clickbait title.

[@jlobiafra]

@@chuckyboog are you blind? Do you not see the avatar where it claims nick asked efren "who are you?" Nick would never say that and nick is fully aware who efren reyes was in 1994. Efren had been on the pro tour since 1988. So yes it's disrespectful to imply that nick varner said "who are you" to efren when he didn't

[@dominicwood3451]

I love the videos about Efren doing his stuff, but I would second some of the comments in that you portray Efren's opponents as all being brash and arrogant. Some are, and undoubtedly it is part of their 'act' e.g. CJ Wiley, and even to an extent Earl (he could back it up) but most people in the pool world have long since learned total respect for what Efren could do. Nick Varner aka Kentucky General would have been well aware of the abilities of the Magician by the time this event took place and respected them. I thank you for posting the video because I wasn't there to see it in person. However you don't need to.manufacture an opponent being arrogant to portray Efren's genius. Just keep posting new and unique footage of the maestro and we'll keep watching. Sure, anytime Efren got one over on a disrespectful clown its great, but 99% of people knew and wanted the challenge only Efren can provide, and continues to provide in his older years.

[@TheBeefSlayer]

3:29 this was the best break I’ve ever seen!!! He made 5 BALLS including the 9 BALL!!!

Nick played the 7-ball to win, and he missed. He is credited for the courage to take risks. That's what champions do.

[@marilouduhaylungsod7869]

Top 5 greatest pool players of all time 01. Efren reyes 02. Earl strickland 03. Nick varner 04. Shane vanboening 05. Johnny archer

[@joemac999]

I assume you're only talking about 9 ball here. A few of these guys are almost exclusively 9 ball players. And Reyes isn't the best 9 ball player of all time, Strickland has a good argument for that. But all disciplines Reyes is the best.

[@johnrltr]

@@joemac999 I'm fairly certain you're correct that Reyes had the best overall record considering 9-ball; 8-ball; and straight pool. I think Sigel (and maybe Strickland and Souquet) had the edge over Efren in 9 ball. But very likely that Reyes had the best won/loss overall in big money games. Reyes once stated that he considered Sigel the best of all time in 9 ball.

[@ronaldherreramrhm]

esta es de las pocas partidas que Efren diría.. me hizo sudar frío.. y aprendí cosas. nuevas en estrategia.. alternativas de tiro o combinación.. no fue una victoria más de Efren... estoy seguro que hasta ahora recuerda cada mesa de esta carrera.. Nick jugo muy bien de lujo.. pero le faltó mejor posicionamiento para el. siguiente tiro.. por lo demás casi no le veo debilidades.. buen saque.. buenas. combinaciones.. sangre fría.. estratega..

Thumbs down for the stupid graphics and added in comments. If you had just left the original images alone....

[@seanscanlon9067]

2:00 I do not think Nick was trying to play safe there and reckon he was trying to send the cue ball off the one ball and into the six ball to pocket it but then gets the double kiss.

[@ThePdog3k]

For sure that was his shot, I agree. He just didn't put enough left english on it.

Excellent match. Efren is kind of the GOAT in pool. Willie Mosconi ran 527 balls in a televised match in 1964 playing straight pool which will NEVER be broken.

I played Efren in 2017; the game was the best three out of five in nine ball (race to three). Of course he beat me and I enjoyed it. - - - If you are ever in the Huntsville Alabama area just stop by Steve's Cue and Grill - - - as you walk in you will see a picture of Efren and I on the left just outside the entrance of my cue repair shop - - - I'm there every week, if I'm not in my shop just walk up to the bar and look to your right - - - I am normally setting at the first table having coffee or unsweetened tea if I am not teaching someone how to shoot pool - - - if you shoot pool, since I own all the Diamond pool tables in the bar, the table time will be on me and I will let you break!
