Two former US Open 9-Ball Champions battling it out at what was easily the most prestigious title on American soil.
“The Rifleman” Buddy Hall and “The Magician” Efren Reyes have both already won every major accolade available in the game. Hall had just been inducted into the BCA Hall of Fame, and would be joined a couple years later by Reyes.
Grady Mathews and Mark Wilson called the match.

Quality production. Thank you everyone.

@rogerscottcathey 4 месяца назад

I think after three attempts to set the rack, if the opposing player is dissatisfied he should have to do it himself . . . and allow inspection by the opposing player. Better yet, require a ref to set them, no questions asked.

Two contrasting but equally beautiful strokes.

@osirisgolad 3 месяца назад

Interesting, isn't it? Efren's stroke is completely unteachable and the result of learning to feel every little nuance and compensating for it intuitively over thousands of repetitions. Buddy's stroke is pretty much perfect if you want to get a new player started on the right foot and it looks like the thing is on rails and nothing is left to chance. Yet they both work fantastically and are aesthetically pleasing at the same time.

@godjhaka7376 2 месяца назад

@@osirisgoladbuddy has always been known as the smoothest best stroke, Efren has NEVER been known for that until a random RU-vidr named fredSavage said something. Efren looks like he's having a stroke to me. He has a short stroke on the last one that's sped up. It doesn't look natural or smooth, not like buddy

@@godjhaka lol, the U.S. open? Efren won well over 100 Pro tournaments and like 70 something international titles. Efren has won more money than any other player. Once for like 6 or 7 years in a row. He was player of the decade from the U.S. BMA. You can't have "THE GOATS" lol. It is a contradiction. I love Earl as well and sure he won more but his attitude is why I don't like him as much. He was/is an amazing player tho

@andrewverrett568 2 месяца назад

@godjhaka efren embarrasses Strickland everytime they play. And efren has won plenty of other major titles. The US open isn't the only tournament with the best players in it. Efren the greatest all around player ever. And buddy hall was only great for a few years. Efren stayed great for decades, even Strickland fell off more than reyes over the years. Reyes was still winning major titles while Strickland was losing before the final 16

PERFECT REAR PAUSE @ 47:47. Perfect example of Buddy's perfect stroke!

@dannyorsello8668 Месяц назад

Mr Hall, The Rifleman, is one of the greatest nine ball players that ever lived. I used to watch him play when he was thin. I do remember there was a tournament where Efferent Reyes was playing in America when he received the news that his father had passed away. Is this the one? I can't say but I do know this was a terrible performance by him not taking anything away from Buddy, he is great.

@Brownie-tg3nu 4 месяца назад

@stlpinstriping7772 Месяц назад

This has always made me think back to Buddy Hall vs. Mike LeBron at the 1991 Challenge of Champions. The infamous "dump". Everything about Efren was very uncharacteristic here. I never ignore the possibility of some huge side action being taken advantage of that could have a bigger payout than the tournament.

Hall is the GOAT. I know it's before your time, but no one would ever say Efren was better than Buddy. He's more than a legend, he helped teach many great players and give them tips like CJ Wiley for instance. He also invented the Clock System... efren hasn't invented anything or gave anything to the pool world, not even an Efren cue. Buddy has many books, gadgets, and teachings.

@lasleona6325 4 месяца назад

This is disgraceful. I was talking to one of the house sticks at Griffs (a famous hustler ) about this match, I had seen it years ago. He told me that the rack thing was an old sharking technique along with talking to your opponent and moving when your in the line of sight before he shot . He knew Efren and told me Efren didn't get sharked. He was disgusted by a world level tournament that didn't even have a referee on a tv match. He just wanted to get out of there. You might also notice at 15:49 and 29:17 that the camera man got directly in Efren's line of sight on somewhat critical shots. Down low and close up. It was not unusual for a hustler to pay the camera man 50 dollars to do that. at what most pool players called the " hustlers ball " ( US Open ) back then. Even in the Philippines they have a ref. and a neutral person racking the balls.

@godjhaka 3 месяца назад

@@williamclinard2438 IKR Efren could never beat Buddy Hall and many others I could name... Efren only has 1 US Open remember? Earl STrickland has 5 and SVB has 5 and won 3 in a row + won 2 world titles consecutively too. All the YT shorts of EFren got people beliving he's the goat and better than he really is, when his only edge is playing balkline and other billiards games young... but if you put Efren up against the best of Billiards (like Raymond C.) he is always destroyed. You'd be a fool to play Buddy for anything even a penny. Buddy has many books and taught many great players. Efren doesn't even have a cue line let alone book.

@2:21 : Instead of eat for your blood type, humans should eat based on their natural biology. That means fruits and vegetables only... that's why humans have to cook meat and can't eat it raw naturally like a lion because you'll die of salmonella and other disease that don't affect real meat aka dead body eaters. You wouldn't be so sick, your pool game would be 100x better as your eyesight, stamina, and abilities all increase as your arteries are no longer clogged by animal fats. You'll be smarter and more sharper. That's why we've yet to see the best pool player of all time... That player will be a black vegan.
