For you who is the greatest billiard player of all time?
Answers:
In pool, is the Q ball supposed to be bigger, or the same size?
Definitely Willie Mosconi. Check out the last question asked about this topic for a more detailed explanation. M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.P.S. I love Reyes and he does play a variety of games, but the same could be said of Mosconi. Mosconi once had an exhibition match with a champion snooker player and after a frame or two, Mosconi was actually beating the snooker champ at his own game. Prior to that, Mosconi had not played snooker at all. I will give Reyes an edge in shot-making, but what we're talking about here is the best all-around player.
I'd also like to comment on the remarks made by "jb1". First of all, the term "billiards" is an all-encompassing term for all cue sports. The word itself does not specifically mean carom games, pocket billiards (pool), or snooker. It could mean any or all of the above. Secondly, the question is asking for "you" who is the greatest... Of course Americans are going to think of pool players first. That's our game. There just isn't near the same level of interest here for carom and snooker games. So don't try to argue semantics and blame us for what we are accustomed to.

Everyone "digs" up Willie Masconi all the time or even "Fats".they would not touch any of the players in todays games....my choice would be Efren Reyes...Earl "the crybaby" Strickland a close second...."Tony R" answered "me" for his answer.if he is the Tony Robles professional pool player then I might put him in the mix as wellMosconi

How do i shoot pool with a non flat stroke?
efren "bata" reyes ... there are a lot of great players but most of them specializes in one or two variations of pool ... efren specializes in all games ... name it, 9-ball, 8-ball, rotation, snooker, one pocket, carom ... that's what separates efren from all other great players ... now, that's magic!Efren Reyes
efren "bata" reyes
one thing i like of this guy is that he is still down to earth guy, humble and makes everyone of us to believe that we can make it to the big leagues no matter who we are, he is just a great inspiration. even he have won many international tournaments u can still see his humbleness. that makes me proud to be a pinoy!

You foreigners are all the same...What about Sir Walter Lindrum[who got his knighted for services to the game or even Eddie Charlton.The question was on BILLIARDS NOT eight ball or poolWhile playing pool online how do i hit the white ball?
Efren Reyes. No one's better than him. No one wins more in pressure cooker than him. A great shotmaker.Where can I find a trick-shot site for pool and snooker?
Efren Bata Reyes! The greatest billiard player of all time. And he is 52 years old right now and still playing and winning. Age does matter in sports so let's take considerations of that.MINNESOTA FAYS WAS THE GREATEST BILLIARD PLAYER OF ALL TIME:-)

Joe Davis in the forties and after that for snookerOne-pocket for cash? Currently top five?
For me this is a rhetorical question..a question that need not be answered as the answer is too obvious. Unquestionably, it's EFREN BATA "The Magician" Reyes. My answer is based on facts...see source below and just read the newspapers.To put icing on the cake, he won the biggest prize in history...a whopping 500,000 US dollars. Likewise, he just won 2 out of 4 trophies in a recently-concluded 9-Ball Asian Tour sponsored by San Miguel and pocketing thousands of US dollars. He is the Michael Jordan of billiards because he elevated the level of competition by introducing safeties and eye-popping magical shots...hence the monicker..THE MAGICIAN. The awards? not less than 20 Word Titles and counting. Who will dare beat that? Not in a thousand years..not..especially an Indian.
So those billard greats of the past maybe outstanding but the level of competition before was different. Since then, It has increased a thousand fold. This reality makes Efren not only the greatest player.but HE IS ..of all time.
World Pool Championship is around the corner. Reyes will simply ace it. Muscoloni?
Nobody remebers him anymore ..except perhaps the dinasaurs.I admire their resilency to wirthstand the test of time..or shall I say...to defy the element of time...Good luck Reyes...my buddy.
