Efren Reyes. He is the greatest all-around pool player. He'd won world titles in 8-ball, 9-ball, straight pool, carom and in just about every conceivable game in pool.
Here's a story that sums the whole thing up. Sometime during the 80's, the Philippines had no player-entry in snooker at the Southeast Asian Games. Philippine sports officials asked the unassuming Reyes if he was up to it, and Efren, who'd never played competitive snooker, practiced for a couple of days and went on to win the snooker event. That's how good and smart he is on the table.

Nobody can match Efren Reyes' imagination in a pool table...a magician...the maestro of the dreaded Philippine team....world 9 and 8 ball champion...and a true gentleman of the sport...US Billiard Hall of Famer.

Steve Meserak (sp?) Also did trick shots in Beer Commercials and as the last ball is rolling in he looks at the camera and says "Even when you're just showin' off".
