The first shot was an extremely clever “kick shot” to clear the ball, seemingly impossible to perform. The second shot was an absolutely perfect “safety” that left his opponents helpless. And from there, Reyes began his journey to shock the world with a series of 100 consecutive magic strikes.
Not simply scoring shots, but each of Reyes’ shots was a masterpiece. There were shots with such strange trajectories that commentators had to pause for a few seconds to understand what he was doing.
There was the “Z-shot” that made the ball run like a hypnotic, or the “three rail bank” that seemed like a gamble, but was accurate to the millimeter. Every time he took the cue, fans were treated to a vivid work of art on the green table.
What made this series of 100 shots legendary was not only the difficulty, but also the way Efren Reyes executed them – gently, calmly, and never showing off.
While his opponents constantly changed their emotions from surprise, confusion to helplessness, Reyes just smiled – the familiar smile of someone who had experienced and understood the magic he created.
One of the most shocking shots was when the cue ball was stuck behind a cluster of balls close together at the end of the table. Most players would have played it safe, but no – Reyes chose a risky “jump-masse”.
The cue ball flew over the ball cluster, spun back, hit three cushions, and landed precisely on the target as if it had been controlled by hand. The whole stadium exploded, the commentator almost shouted: “This is no longer billiards – this is magic!”
And so, each shot followed the next like a symphony of perfection. Every viewer, whether they were a casual fan or a billiards legend, had to admit that they were witnessing something unprecedented – a performance that went beyond the limits of human skill. International commentators even called that moment “The day billiards became poetry.”
Not only Reyes’ technique, but also his mentality throughout this 100-shot streak was amazing. Pressured by opponents, expected by audiences, watched by millions of eyes – but he was not shaken. His concentration, his ability to control his emotions, and his cool head made many people bow their heads in admiration.
It was as if every shot he made was the result of thousands of practice sessions, thousands of experienced matches, and a soul that loved art more than victory.
The moment the 100th shot was made – an extremely difficult “back cut” – the entire audience stood up and applauded. No one cared about the outcome of the match anymore. No one thought about winning or losing.
Everyone just felt happy because they had witnessed a miracle. Reyes’ opponent came up to shake his hand, not with disappointment, but with utmost respect. That person said: “I didn’t lose because I played badly. I lost because I witnessed something that no one can repeat in their entire life.”
That day, social media was flooded with pictures and videos of Reyes’ performance. Major newspapers carried headlines such as “100 Magic Strikes: Efren Reyes does the impossible”, “More of a show than a match”, or “The 8th wonder of the billiards world”.
More than a win, more than a record, Efren Reyes’ 100 magic strikes series has become a part of history, a living legend of this sport. It is a testament to the greatness that comes not only from talent, but also from the spirit of constantly striving, from the deep love for the cue stick, the table, and for millions of fans around the world.
In a world where everything can change so quickly, that moment – 100 MAGIC STRIKES OF EFREN REYES – will forever be a benchmark, a dream that anyone who loves billiards hopes to witness once.
