The pool world needs more like Jimmy Mataya, Earl Strickland, Keith McCready and Efren Reyes. They made pool exciting and appealing for average Joes. Too many pro pool players of the modern era are like robots. They seldom smile, seldom show emotion, always go for the safest shot. Pool is a gambler's game. That's what has kept it alive for so long.
I used to watch him play at the track in oak park…..greatest pool room for action ever
He’s the best player in the world, what are ya kidding me!? Ya ever seen a bar fly leave without a receipt? Well, I have, but I wouldn’t bet on it!
What a shitty game pool really is..
💔 please, type in Greta Thunberg connects climate, ecological, and health crisis……..
Yes, you are gambling, if the sun comes out
Thanks for memories.
I was just a kid in high school trying to learn the game
I’m not an authority on pool, not even close. But I do have an opinion on the subject. A solid “money” player and a tournament champion require two totally different mind sets. I believe that TV tried to weed out certain players in order to clean up its act. Unfortunately, in doing so they made the sport more boring than golf.
Get the cash. Because you can't spend a trophy. And what are you gonna do? Use your trophy as collateral at a bank? I don't think so. Get the cash
Reminds me of Calvin’s game.

I was a referee at the world straight pool tournament in Cleveland back in the 90s. I reffed Nick Varner v Pretty Boy Floyd. The match was long and tedious PBF was a bit of a jerk but that night we were the last 2 in the hotel lounge and Jim Mataya was very nice he apologized saying, that's my act, that's what I do. The next day I'm with my girlfriend having reffed his two hour plus match I started giving her a play by play of his antics before he displayed them not realizing his wife Eva was standing directly in front of me. She turned around and gave me a totally classy smile letting me know she heard every word I said.
Time to put Jimmy in the Hall of Fame
That was good. Thanks for sharing.
WISH THEY GAVE PRETTY BOY A BIGGER PART IN THE MOVIE. HE HAD GREAT NATURAL SWAGGER. EXCELLENT CASTING
PRETTY BOY SHOULD HAVE HAD TOM CRUISE PART. BECAUSE PRETTY BOY WAS "LIVING THE PART!!! MAN THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT. TOO BAD NEVER MADE A PART 2!
PBF was a guy who could shoot some pool and he had his hot wife who was a good player. Made for some good ESPN shtick in the Color of Money era but how many titles did he win against the greats from that era?
Is it true that all pool players are part of the lgbtq community? If so, they are so brave.
I remember Jimmy winning a big event then wore dark shades as Mizerak interviewed him aha haa ha aha….
watched Shannon daulton beat him like a drum in Lexington ky after mataya ran his mouth at him . Dalton was a kid of about 15 to 16 years old . Absolutely not a Reyes or Strickland . Either could have given him the Seven in 9 ball.
He and Ewa lived across the street from me as a kid, I thought they were the best looking people I'd ever seen ❤️🔥
All these people hating on Jimmy makes me sick. Probably half of them working at Mcdonald's eating Ramen. When you get to be somebody, there's just piles and nobody's waiting for you to fall.
