Typhoon Sendong: Fund Drive / Donations Update

Typhoon Sendong GraphicTropical storm Sendong ravaged Mindanao with devastating rains, unleashing flash floods and landslides that left a trail of destruction and left thousands our kababayans homeless. Hundreds of pictures and videos filled the screens of our television sets and computer monitors depicting the sad plight of our brothers and sisters, sons and daughters.

What we saw in the news saddened each and every one of us. Words cannot describe the fuzziness in my throat and the clouds in my eyes when I saw the picture of a father carrying the dead body of his child. The picture tells it all.

Please allow us to take this opportunity to thank our pool players and friends who extended a helping hand in the form of cash assistance and/or relief goods for the victims of Sendong. They are the following:


Gillian Go (BDN)
Php 3,000

Lee Vann Corteza and the Negros Billiards Stable
Php 10,000


World Champion Rubilen “Bingkay” Amit (MAPPA/BDN)
10 boxes of bottled mineral water


Jonathan, Sonia, and Jed Paguio (IAC)
Php 500


Jassen Chua (BDN)
1 plastic container of used clothing


Boyong Jorge (MAPPA)
1 shopping bag of used clothing


Jesse Gonzales Cambosa (MAPPA)
1 shopping bag of new shirts


and

a group of kids who donated bags of used clothing.


Despite the short notice and all, we managed to gather a total of Php13,500, 10 boxes of bottled mineral water, 5 bags of used clothing, and 1 bag of brand new shirts for our kababayans. The donations were turned over to Ms. Sol of GMA-7, who furnished us with receipts for such. Many thanks to Sam Nielsen of GMA-7 for taking time out to assist us with the fund drive.

To everyone who shared their blessings with our brothers and sisters, and our sons and daughters in Mindanao, Maraming salamat po!


*To the man in the picture – I know it may not mean much but you and your child will always be in my prayers. Always.

Lee Vann Corteza Subdues Yang Ching-shun in Philippine Bigtime Billiards Face-Off!

Lee Vann Corteza Graphic
Filipino pool player Lee Vann Corteza subdued an all-out comeback from Taiwan's Yang Ching-shun to rule the 5th leg of Philippine Bigtime Billiards’ Face-Off Series last night at the Pagcor Airport Casino in Paranaque City. Corteza, aka The Slayer, took home the cool $5,000 first prize via a 9-6 finish of Yang, aka The Son of Pool.

Yang Ching Shung GraphicThe Son of Pool managed to force a tie at 4-4. However, a scratch in the 9th rack allowed the Slayer to bag the 9th rack. Corteza managed to squeeze in a comfortable three game lead at 7-4 – and never looked back. Final score: 9-6.

According to Corteza, "I got a lot of breaks. Luck played a huge part in my win tonight. From experience, Yang is a very tough opponent and winning over him is no easy task. Every time one plays Yang, you can rest assured that it will be an uphill climb all the way.”

Corteza plays for the Negros Billiards Stable and JSY Sports. Sponsors include Energen, Kopiko, Hustlin USA, and Diveney Cues.

Lee Vann Corteza ImageFor those not in the know, the Philippine Bigtime Billiards Face-Off Series continues next week, December 10, 2011. Yang will be pitted against one of world’s deadliest players – Dennis Orcollo, aka The Robocop! Yes, you’ve read right, everyone! It’s going to be the Son of Pool vs. Asia’s Money Game King/2011 WPA Pool Player of the Year! I will not miss this! And I kid you not!

Lee Vann Corteza vs. Yang Ching Shun: The Philippine Bigtime Billiards Face-Off Series!

Lee Vann Corteza Graphic
It’s definitely on! It’s the Slayer vs. the Son of Pool! Filipino pool player Lee Vann Corteza and Taiwanese Yang Ching Shun will clash tonight, 9 PM, in the 5th leg of the Philippine Bigtime Billiards Face-Off Series at the internationally-renowned Pagcor Casino in ParaƱaque City!

Dennis Orcollo is WPA 2011 Player of the Year!

Dennis Orcollo Graphic
Asia’s Money Game King, Dennis Orcollo, has been named the World Pool and Billiard Association (WPA) 2011 Player of the Year! And I kid you not!

The 32-year-old Orcollo, who plays for Bugsy Promotions, racked up an impressive 2,570 points in 8 WPA ranking events over the course of 2011, to grab the top honors in the world rankings of billiards. Yukio Akagariyama of Japan, who won the World 9-ball Championship in Qatar in June 2011, came in a close second with 2382 points. Darren Appleton of the United Kingdom, who won his second straight US Open title in October 2011, landed third with 2256 points. Filipino pool player Ronnie Alcano finished with 2063 points. Orcollo will receive a trophy and a Tag Heuer watch for the recognition.

Speaking over the phone, the Robocop says, "I am very happy with this honor! I dedicate this to all my fans, the fans of the sport, and for my country - the Philippines. With hope, I will continue playing my best in 2012."

The year 2011 will be remembered as the year that Orcollo snatched his first world championship when he won the coveted World 8-Ball title in February 2011, in Fujairah, United Arab Emirates. Other notable finishes include 7th in the 2011 Philippine Open, 5th in the World 10-Ball Championship, and 3rd in the World 9-ball Championship. Moreover, in January 2011, Surigao del Sur’s favorite son won the Derby City 9-ball division in Louisville, Kentucky, before playing 1st Runner-up to Ralf Souquet in the World Pool Masters held in September 2011. But wait! We’re not done yet. Bugsy’s number one pool player then captured the Philippine National 9-ball and the Predator International 10-Ball championships. Indeed! Orcollo’s star shone brightly in 2011.

Dennis Orcollo hails from Bislig, Surigao del Sur, Mindanao. He spent his childhood helping his father fish to feed the family. Orcollo’s father disappeared in a fishing accident when he was just 9 years old. The incident forced him to take over the grueling duties of fishing to keep the family fed.

Orcollo started to play pool during his free time from fishing chores. He instantly feel in love with the sport and never looked back. He followed his dream of becoming a world champion by traveling to Manila during his adolescent years. Hard work and perseverance, coupled with the guidance of Bugsy Promotion’s Perry Mariano, paid off handsomely for the Filipino pool player.

World Champion! Asia’s Money Game King! WPA 2011 Player of the Year! And more! Believe you me, Dennis Orcollo is it! Congratulations, Dennis! You made us all proud! Mabuhay!

Daryl Peach Subdues Ronnie Alcano in Philippine Bigtime Billiards Face-Off Series!

Daryl Peach GraphicDaryl Peach, aka The Dazzler, staged an impressive come-from-behind finish against Ronnie Alcano, aka The Volcano, to rule the November 29, 2011 Face-Off Series of Philippine Bigtime Billiards at the Pagcor Airport Casino in Paranaque City. Peach rallied from a 2-7 deficit and secured the win at 9-7.

Peach, the 2007 World 9-Ball Champion, received the $5,000 top prize, while Alcano, the 2006 World 9-Ball and 2007 World 8-Ball Champion, settled for $2,500. The latter was the odds-on favorite to win both in the house and e-games.

At the onset of the competition, Peach fumbled on two easy shots, which paved the way for Alcano to realize a seemingly insurmountable lead. However, the Dazzler took the last seven racks by exploiting the winner’s-break format in the 10-ball, race-to-9 event.

It was a vindication of sort for Peach, who got nipped by Alcano in the 2007 World 8-ball Championships held at the United Arab Emirates.

Peach’s win marks the third straight defeat of Filipino pool players in the weekly showdown after Ralf Souquet won against Dennis Orcollo and Carlo Biado in previous matches, which were also held at the Pagcor Airport Casino

But wait! It ain’t over till the fat lady sings! Come November 26, 2011, Peach will face off against another World 9-Ball Champion – none other than Francisco Django Bustamante! And you guess, right! I am betting my bottom dollar on Django on this one. And I kid you not!

Women's World 10-Ball Championship: Players and Schedules of Matches

2011 Yalin World 10-Ball Championship GraphicThe complete group draw for the 2011 Yalin World 10-Ball Championship is now official! And I kid you not! The world’s best professional female pool players will battle it out at the 2011 Yalin World 10-Ball Championship from November 2 to 6, 2011, at Robinson's Galleria.

China will try its darndest best to keep a monopoly on world championship wins, but they will have some big challenges in the persons of England's Allison Fisher and Kelly Fisher.

"The World 10-Ball Championship is important to me because it is a title i have not won. Nine ball is a bit more of an equalizer but nevertheless, to win an event requires great play and some luck," commented Allison, aka the Duchess of Doom. "I hope to perform on a very high level and in turn create a great result." When asked who her top picks would be aside from herself, Fisher simply stated "Not saying." No doubt, with a big win in China last week and her 5th US Open title in early 2011, Allison sees herself on the top podium with England's national anthem playing.

Korea will have a powerful force as well and is likely to produce a top contender into the later rounds. Ga Young Kim already has two World Championships, Yu Ram Cha has a World Open title, and Eunji Erica Park has a 3rd at the US Open and a 5th at the 2010 World 10-Ball.

Heat from the Pool Capital of the World will be provided by no less than the 2009 World 10-Ball Champion Rubilen “Bingkay” Amit and Iris Ranola.

Monica Webb and Jennifer Barretta will try to be the first Americans to win in 2 decades.

World Pool Masters, World Cup of Pool & Predator International 10-Ball Schedules!

World Pool Masters Graphic

Indeed, it will be a busy September for Philippine billiards as the Pool Capital of the World plays host to not just one but three major international tournaments! And I kid you not!

First on the list is the 2011 World Pool Masters, which will kick off the events on September 3-5 at the SM City North Edsa in Quezon City. Sixteen of the world's best cue artists will take part in the prestigious invitational tournament, including Filipino pool players Efren Bata" Reyes, Francisco “Django” Bustamante, Dennis Orcollo, and Lee Vann Corteza.

For those not in the know, Orcollo, aka Robocop, is the defending champion. He will be seeing competition in the opener of the $66,000 event – battling it out against Tony Drago of Malta (2003 World Pool Masters champion). Bustamante takes on Canada’s Jason Klatt, as Corteza and Reyes clash with the Netherlands’ Huidji See and England’s Darren Appleton, respectively. The World Pool Masters will have a race-to-8, winner’s break format. All matches will be aired live on Solar Sports: September 3-4 at 12 noon to 10 PM, and September 5 at 3 PM to 10 PM. Solar Sports is on Sky Cable Channel 70, Destiny Channel 35, and Cablelink Channel 31.

World Cup of Pool Graphic
The next event is the 2011 World Cup of Pool where two Philippine teams will compete head on against the world’s bests on September 6-11 – also at the SM City North Edsa. Reyes and Francisco "Django" Bustamante aim to make history as they seek to win their third title. Reyes and Bustamante won the coveted World Cup of Pool championship twice, i.e., in 2006 and in 2009. Orcollo and Ronnie Alcano make up the other Filipino pair who will gun it out for the championship, which is currently held by China’s Fu Jianbo and Li He Wen. A total of 32 teams from 31 countries will compete in the $250,000 tournament.
