    Articles about Efren

    That would be me ! It was at the Derby City last year in the one pocket division. Steve Booth from onepocket.org snapped the photo and then e-mailed it to me when we got home. And yes, I was probably racking that game :(

    What is it about Efren Reyes?

    Efren is just one cool cucumber. I will share a shot with you that he played against me at the Derby City last year in the one pocket division. The score in games was 1-0 Efren at this point. Efren was winning this game 6-2, but I had him totally locked up. My pocket is A, and his pocket is...

    Cool little things that help your game.....

    Good point Frank. For those wondering why one would shoot the kick like this, it is because you get a flatter angle into the object ball, thus increasing the chances to pocket it. START( %Ar6N0%PO6G7%Wd1Z6%XP3H7%Yr1O6%Zd9[1%eC0b1%br6P1%ci2[4%dP3H7 )END Notice the curved path and better...

    Cool little things that help your game.....

    Here is another shot that has helped me on many, many occasions... It never occured to be because of the distance and the fact it was on the long rail. An old timer by the name of Flash (RIP) showed me this shot. Actually he laughed at my feeble attempt during a money game, called me over, and...

    Pool Players - What makes them good?

    Confidence..... This is the key. If you do not have to think about pocketing the ball because you KNOW it is going in....all your effort can be directed to the little white ball and controlling it....which is the key to playing great pocket billiards. Playing with confidence, stroking with...
