What's your go to?

I was curious how many of you, if any, have a go to pool video? A video that you watch multiple times, whether it be to relax, watch top notch play, or refocus on the game. If you have one, and don't mind sharing the title and explaining why it's your go to, I'd love to hear it.

For me, it's a youtube video from 1966 of Irving Crane going 150 and out on Joe Balsis. Nothing exciting happens, which is why I like it in a wat because it's simplistic, magnificent shooting. It also amps me up to play for some reason, I've been playing for a bit over a year now and the first time I watched it I got my best straight pool run (Granted 26 isn't that high, but I was quite pleased).

Hope to hear of some good ones!

Thanks!
 
Efren vs mika race to 7 9 ball, efren played unstoppable, and mika made some funny faces
 
Mmmmmmm favorite video... That's a tuff call. I also love the Mika Vs Efren games, they never disappoint. My favorite that I like so far is Mika Immonen vs Ronnie Alcano when Mika wins his first U.S open 9-ball championship. Very great game of pool.
 
I don't know if there is one video but I would call my go to - anything vintage Earl. Watching him in high gear is just unreal. If that doesn't do the trick I like to watch vintage buddy hall. Watching his methodical consistent deliberate stroke relaxes me.

Other favorites are
Shane vs Mills Tar match
96 color of money match
91 williard reyes vs hatch and reyes v parica
1988 tara open earl v efren
91 Sands Medina vs incardona (Medina runs 8)
89 mcdermott masters Paez v Medina (Paez runs 8)

And for a laugh I put in the Famous McCready versus Gary Nolan match with Grady swearing up a storm and being x rated through the entire tape.

Where is this video available for purchase. I need to see this.
 
Another vote fro Sigel's 150 and out vs Zuglan. Possibly the most technically correct run captured on film. I believe he only gets out of line one or twice.

Honestly, I think Ive seen 90% of pool videos on youtube. I like the ones that move along in a nice pace. I can't watch 2,3 hour videos. Its the death of pool. watching players like soquet or sossei is painful sometimes, i like their game but they can be sooooooooo slow.
