Filipino pool player Benjie Guevarra
Ronnie Alcano going for a jump. This particular shot and the shot leading to it was interesting. Ronnie Alcano opted for a push out and left no open shot on the 1-ball for Benjie Guevarra . Benjie opted for Ronnie to continue. Armed with his Predator Air jump cue, Ronnie Alcano jumped and safely hid the 1-ball behind a cluster of balls! 'Twas really an awesome shot! And I kid you not!
A separate tournament was concurrently held for amateur pool players at the 4th floor of the StarMall as the first Senate President Manny Villar Cup Billiards Tournament went underway at the 3rd floor of the StarMall. Indeed, it was an exciting day for billiards and pool fans alike!
