寫到說Reyes在1987年拿過第14屆東南亞運動會(SouthEast Asian Games)
司諾克比賽的金牌。
這似乎是他得過名的唯一一場正式的司諾克賽事。

AZBilliards網站在訪問Reyes時，他說道：
AZB: What exactly is it that you do so much better than all the other players
out there?
Efren: Most great players develop their expertise and exceptional play in one
particular pool game be it pocket billiards, snooker or billiards. It is
extremely hard to specialize in 2 of those 3 categories. I am an all around
player. I play very well in all 3 categories.
他說撞球不外乎花球、司諾克，以及開侖這三個領域。大部份球員要精通其中的兩項已
屬不易，而他自己則是三項中的佼佼者。(我覺得這語氣有點狂妄)

BCA在介紹美國名人堂的選手們也有寫到：
EFREN REYES was born in Pampanga, Philippines, on August 26, 1954. At the age
of five, he went to live with his uncle who owned a pool room in Manila. He
picked up the nickname “Bata”, which means “The Kid” in his native
language. Young Efren worked as a billiard attendant, sleeping on the pool
table so he could play as soon as he woke up. He taught himself the “simple”
shots such as English, draw, follow-through and position by watching the
good players. But his secret may be found in what he learned from the weaker
players, who sometimes made unintentional, but brilliant shots. This ability
to make the “impossible shot” earned him the nickname of "The Magician".
Mr. Reyes is a Gold Medal winner in the Asian Games (9-Ball) and Southeast
Asian Games (Snooker). In 2001, he won the richest first prize in pool
history ($163,172) in the Tokyo 9-Ball Championship. He is also a champion at
Rotation and Balkline. His many wins include the 1995 Pro Tour Championship,
1995 PBT World 8-Ball, 1999 Derby City One-Pocket, 1999 ESPN Ultimate
Challenge, 1999 WPA World 9-Ball Championship, 2000 Camel Pro 8-Ball, 2001
Masters 9-Ball, 2002 Challenge of Champions and 2003 Mid-Atlantic 9-Ball
Championship. He led his country’s team to victory in the World Team
Billiards event.
所以他小時候是睡在pool table上，而不是snooker table上，想當然爾他是花球出身。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
另外，Reyes在1997年WPA九號球錦標賽前後的一場類似聊天室的對話中說到：
http://www.billiardsdigest.com/mainevent/wpa97/reyes.txt
<r9ball> Do you play much on a 12' snooker table?
<Efren Reyes> No, I don't play much Snooker, because there are not
many snooker tables in the Phillipines.
他說他不太打司諾克.....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
而wikipedia對Reyes的介紹也沒提到司諾克。
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efren_Reyes
結論就是：他應該不是司諾克出身，因為我找不到相關資料。
