[ksiao]

worst cam

[meldasavitri]

who is the name of the girl ?

[andrew67]

SOUQUET KICKS ASS AGAIN

[MrAccordianhero]

@19:30 it looks like efren says JIM! as he looks up. funny

[JMHEROE]

reyes=pool wizard

[Nkellbe1]

she's got nice fingernails, surprising isnt it? what a dick

[erickuuttilajr]

@Nkellbe1 I think what he meant by that statement is that it was a "nail biter" kind of game and her nails were still intact.

[instereovideos]

I must be having a flashback, because I keep seeing tracers...

[PestVic]

whats with the damn lag? :(

[WolfieTed]

I can't stand slow play!

[jjooeegg1]

Efren Sunshine wins again!!!!

[Bloodstryke]

skip to 5:18 to start match

[killercraigaaaw]

Great match. It's nice to know that both of these players are human after all. It's difficult to root for either one of these guys, only because you would be rooting against the other. Reyes and Souquet are both great competitors. It was nice to see a hill-hill match.

[itbeginx]

these guys sucks

[MrADiiDAS]

THE KAISER !!

[32KOAST]

reyes is great, but majority of people who are a fan of reyes, arent pool players at all.

[idunnowhattotype]

@32KOAST You don't have to play pool to be a fan of a certain player. Maybe by watching matches such as these they'll pick up a cue stick and swing at some balls and pursue it. My pool hall's always empty as far as games go. =(

[32KOAST]

@idunnowhattotype yeah, running a pool hall is a tough buisness, majority of successful ones have pros running it. I play at Shooters in Toronto and Jon white owns it. I believe he was a former world snooker champion.

[TheImmortalFlip]

@32KOAST Filipino fans of reyes are pool players.. Billiard halls in the Philippines are everywhere.. it's second behind basketball in terms of popularity in Philippines.................

[BP2611]

/watch?v=isR41fTHHb0 <- Pro vs. noob pool match.

[zzzthaoster]

efren's getting old, his shooting is not as sharp anymore...7 or 8 years back, efren would never miss an easy shot like that.

[nukm4]

16:30 why didn't he cross corner it? Much easier angle.

[capoman1]

The commentator said "Ralf is far from intimidated by Reyes..."

I think that "farfromintimidated" is actually a German word.

[imbazwerg]

How is this championship called where they have to make trick shot ´s to get points?

[gabbahey66]

chalk off?

[400timesmore]

Efren is sick here - just watch his face and his voice.

[400timesmore]

both players are great. I respect ralf so much, he's a great player and a very kind person. And efren - well he's the master

[JackRabbitS1im]

Why are there so many glitchy errors in the video quality of all BClub's videos? I am asking seriously, because I don't see video errors like that anywhere else on YouTube. Not really complaining, just curious?

[dumpstump2010]

Keep them coming, love efren, amazing player.

[skiergd011013]

agreed i would have loved to watch the safety battle that is a huge part of the game that requires great knowlege of what the balls are going to do

[futaness29]

nakachamba lng si kalbo 

[sk80soarus]

does Souquet play with a Predator Cue? I can tell by the sound of his stroke.

[tzytnt2007]

@sk80soarus i think he's playing with a 314 2 shaft, dunno about the cue

[truStyle101]

@sk80soarus he's playin with a Joss custom cue and a predator 314 shaft

[MrGalaticos]

Damn! What a match! I've never seen so many mistakes made by this two professionals!!

[Zialox]

they call Souquet the kaiser?? lol

epic matchup tho

[hudas75]

he mention in the early interview that he own efren, by tournaments or money games?

[StraightEdgeVideos]

Is the referee Michaela Tabb?

[bushidoway]

good match, i thought there was gonna be a different outcome because of the 2nd to last, but it was def clutch

[chrisco510]

Jim Wych is a douche-canoe. Otherwise, a great match.

[NAMTRIP]

I cant believe he DIDNT get lucky,he always gets lucky,Ive never seen the luck factor go against Reyes,this is a first,How the fuck can he even see to play with his eyes almost shut??

[cha0tic]

You get angry when he wins. You get angry when he loses. You should take some pills and shut the fuck up.

[kristiantheheathen]

@NAMTRIP - Some American pool player (I forget who) was quoted to have said, "The more I practice, the luckier I get.") Reyes creates his "luck" more often than not. And that remark about Hitler? How low can you go?

[aardvaark069]

@kristiantheheathen I think that was Ben Hogan the golfer. I agree. Reyes knows how to make the luck scenario work for him. He's a genius and his thinking is not like other players.

[MrMudneck]

@aardvaark069 I wish I knew what the hell it was.

[NAMTRIP]

@NAMTRIP Im the Schmuck,,Reyes deserves all the respect in the world,Im just a

keyboard idiot,what dont deserve to carry the mans cue stick into the poolhall,

I like to stir it up sometimes,but If the time came for me to pick the best,Id say Reyes,for fuck sake,whos better?

[123datang]

@NAMTRIP

u need to have the skills first before you can get lucky

[NAMTRIP]

@NAMTRIP I have nothing but respect for Mr.Reyes,Hes the best right?I dont mean anything negative,Im sorry to have worded my negative post that way,I just meant I was surprised he didnt make it.

[NAMTRIP]

I wouldnt care if it was Hitler himself,long as they are beating Reyes,This guy makes me sick,he wins so many games by his opponent choking,Yeah,I know hes king shit,but he is also way lucky,all the time.

[cha0tic]

What has Efren ever done to you? People like you make me sick.

[hotd34me]

Poor Efren he almost never screws up his position I think he was probably shaken up from playing someone in his league even a top rank pool player like Efren can get nervous.

[urmombiznatch]

efran wasnt playin so hot. but it goes to show that everyone has their off nights. i believe that joe smoe off the street has the possibility of beating the best in the world 1 out of every 10 racks. jeanette lee plays at a lil place by my house an ive beat her 3 times. im not tryin to brag, cuz im really not that good.

[illusionfyre]

wow shit. the commentator sucked. and FUCK! THIS IS SO NOT EFREN MAN! SO NOT EFREN.

[NAMTRIP]

What,no Hail Mary on the 1 ball?What happened to miracle man???

[brtrum]

expect matches like this when top 1 meets top 2. :)

[pajamaboy456]

why does jim wynch such so much

[mateliamfarac]

REYES-BUSTAMANTE...the 2 best!

[pigdisposal]

I would back souquet over almost anybody in the world because He has no attitude, never looses his cool, and hes a bit of a fuc^%$# beast!

[MrMudneck]

man ive got heartache to see efren play like that. hes my favorite player.

[joeygonzo]

@MrMudneck

He hit that cueball a tad too low.

[elementskateboardsyo]

Great match but efren just not on his game in this one.

[bobalitos]

11:47 lol are they talking about the (im guessing) wife of souquet :O

[strophish]

Sooooo BAD!!!!! THE worst play I have ever seen from my 2 favorite players. 2 Stars

[HS22181]

I enjoy watching any match refereed by the lovely Michaela Tabb. She is sooooo sexy.

[offeed]

holy shit :O 10:40 to bad he missed it :/

[COLUMBINE1818]

What's with all the missing racks? I wanted to see that saftey battle in the beginning that they only made mention of. If people are willing to sit at their computers and watch a series of 9 ball for an hour people are willing to sit another 20 to 30 minutes to see every part of it.

[vanceoliver]

@COLUMBINE1818

agreed.

[jhampereyra]

this is just the 1st round..Its still Efren won the championship via 9-7 racks over Randy Morris...if Im not mistaken...

[italiombiano]

you are mistaken, it is Rodney morris, not randy

[asawacoh04]

efren pa rin...

[sherwinKC]

even if he lose,still he is the best player for me,hes so humble,thats why god gave him so much blessings!!!!win or lose? efren ...your the man!!!!

[nvsweet]

He's so humble, that's why god gave him so much blessings??? What the hell does god have to do with his humility or pool playing ability. Maybe he's a humble person that's an excellent pool player.

[Betsomething1]

This video reminds us that efren is human.

[UFBear15]

this truly looks like Reyes dumped.

[Niksana951]

erm.. Why when Efren lose u all say that he played bad.He played very good but Souquet played better..

[brucelee2000]

This is definetely one of efrens worst matches even souquet playd pretty bad in some places.

[am7081]

why did the cameraman zoom in on the girl at 11:48?

[BClub]

Ralf's wife

[uzare]

@BClub

she is ralph's girlfriend

[omega666ification]

@pigdisposal how is this sport b.s cuz u can't play ? what about the soccer players for example who get millions of dollars to run up and down a field and some of them never even get to kick the ball and there on the field and farless for those who get benched the whole game pool is a very difficult game to master as all sports are u should respect a sport whether or not u can't play it i have been playing pool for 8 years and it really upsets me when i hear guys like u saing it a b.s sport.

[NAMTRIP]

@am7081 Why does Reyes get to break if Ralf won the game?

[wpkid7]

@NAMTRIP this tourney is alternate break instead of winner break

[IcarusFlying]

wow that was hard to watch. incredible match. excellent playing for anyone. bad playing for them. this video introduced me to Ralph, so i was cheering for Effren. that's just too bad. Still a very close match.

[bladest0rm2672]

gud game

[azaas]

damn mikaela is hot ;)

[joeygonzo]

I've never seen Efren play this bad.

[DKJackass]

he was playing very good but he just had no luck

[mr694you]

At 24:53 the brit commentator says put that fish and rice on hold. WTF??? Where did that came from? Lol! maybe it's a brit thing or something.

[joeygonzo]

Where did it COME from, you mean.

He was suggesting to all Pinoys to hold off eating and quitting on watching the match.

[lemonite1]

Cuz its rotation and ya' gotta git a good shot on the lowest numbered ball, nine ball can become an ugly game.

[joshhustla]

i think ralf juz got lucky ,thats what it is,efren is the god of pool thats all i can say......

[jman2786]

i'd like to see the win by two rule applied with the alternating break format...i think it would nice

[victory01]

wow! great quality. thanks poster!

[theshredator]

man, Efren's struggling. It hurts to watch.

[tedlaver]

I really like the format in which this match is shown. The recaps of the un-aired games. What a shot at 25:30!! amazing.

[MarkDConnelly]

Wow! Reyes going between the 2&9 to try and hit the 1. Amazing effort.

[zygote09]

sheesh. ralf takes fucking forever.. .

[uchihay2g]

I don't know who is worse, Ralf Souquet or Johnny Archer.

[kirklon]

BTW he should play much faster thats the point

[benzino248]

Archer is worse...he'll look and look, but so will Ralf. However, Ralf usually makes more shots after he has studied 30000 different options in his head.

[phixxwutwut]

@uchihay2g johnny archer def

[zygote09]

waiting to pounce? wtf? sucky commentator! they arent gladiators

[italiombiano]

@ 11:15 how the HELL did he get between that 2-9, man that guy is nasty, off a kick lol. efren is a beast no matter how you look at it, two legends, i cant say which player i like better

[victory01]

that was a killer shot! reyes is super creative. he does is so naturally its sick!

[jstyiezp]

efrens still good even though hes like 50+ years of age..only thing is, he doesnt play as smart as he use to...he use to be alot better, but off course even legends get old

[victory01]

i don't think his accuracy has hurt. the only thing i've noticed go down is his ball speed.

[derwahreTJ]

always love the vids. keep em up!

[LeonFleisherFan]

What a nailbiter! Interestingly, while I've (rarely!) seen Reyes (my favourite player) play worse (rushing things, unlike here, where he seems to be fighting the speed of the table, running out of learning time so to speak), I've never seen him make so many mistakes. Ralf doesn't appear to have an easy time adjusting to the apparently brand new cloth either (notice most mistakes are on shots where the cue ball slides/deflects), but on the whole makes the usual fine job of it. Thanks for this!

[kirklon]

Hey Listen.. Ralf got Efren's number because he got fucked up by the slowness of Ralf's play! Even slow one pocket players distract and beat him!

[LeonFleisherFan]

Even if so, I'm sure Efren would be the first to tell you that it's his fault if he can't deal with it. Also, in formats not implying alternate break, there's a recipe indirectly based on Irving Crane's old saying: "The guy in the chair can't hurt you!"

[LeonFleisherFan]

To avoid misunderstanding, the latter was meant to be a response to those who believe Efren to be thrown off by Ralf's rhythm (or lack thereof). There's simply no use obsessing over distraction of any kind. To concentrate on what one has influence on is all we can do, to complain about what others do or are like a loss of time and effort. Also, one's got to admire Ralf for not relenting, for not shooting before he's made up his mind, for putting his stamp on the game, for shrugging off criticsm.

[joeygonzo]

Efren once told me, he  can't beat Ralph if he didn't have a good night's sleep the night before the match. lol

I kid you not.

I once saw Chamat and RS take 3+ hours to race to 11.

It was so disgusting the crowd were almost yelling at them b/c they were holding the next session.

[ChrisP4lm3r]

Wow what the fuck was the camera-man doing during that Ralf interview?

[joethepigg]

A machine. He will never be Reyes.

[joemac92]

don't read the comments..u dont want to spoil this one

[Smoking799]

I played Souquet.

He's a machine but soo fckn slow...

You could easily read a comic book 'till he cleans up 4-5 tables in a row.

[ddebusca]

Yeah!! I love you BCn!!! you too efren!!!

[andre0407]

It was great. Thanks. :)

[jannboy326]

bcn! yeeeeeeeey! another match thanx! i left my cue case with my cue in it at a train station. ouch i know. but i finally have a means of supporting you guys! im buying my next cuestick from you guys! thnx again BCN!

[jobw87]

Those are 2 of my 3 top favs! And what a match? My eyes were glued to the screen, even when I was driving.

I'm so :0)

[highshooter420]

WOW! That was a nail-biter. Great match and keep 'em coming.

[MacManLtd]

I think this is one of the videos they had to reupload b/c of some ads in it.

I'm saying this b/c i feel I've seen this already, either on youtube or on tv.

[plmijnygcrdzwaquyijo]

That was the most misses i have ever seen in a professional match that i can remember. And it was still a good match...2 world class players 100%!

[uchihay2g]

watch Buddy Hall vs McCredy. I was surprised at the amount of missed in that match.

[BartjeOstend]

This is better than porno :-) Thanks for upload BCn

[masterswish]

@BartjeOstend really?.. pornno?.. are you sure?..

[BartjeOstend]

@masterswish mmm well it depends, full moon .. instinctive feelings .. ;)

[andyhuynh209]

thanks for the upload

[naples1776]

kaiser got lucky. efren kills him gambling, kaiser wont even gamble with him anymore. but who really wants to? reyes is the greatest of all time!

[tibeatz89]

souquet is my favourite player!

thanks for this video!

i've been waiting for a new souquet-match so long =)

[kabayanhustler]

great match.. what year was this tournament?

[tifferdile1]

You mean 2006, the year it says in the description?

[krstozzztr]

Great match

[junkyjuice21]

wow that was a heart-pounder

[AaronB90210]

Great, as always!

[DicktheBowler]
