Japan's Taka is First Runner-Up!

Indeed! The match was an exciting one. Twas hotly contested! Lester was enjoying a 5-2 lead when Taka got a second wind and made a 4-0 run - taking the lead at 6-5! Daddy Lester wouldn't have none of it and tied the match at 6-6! And in the game to decide all games, Lester had the opportunity to break but failed to pocket any ball. As Taka was on the 2-ball, he noticed the 9 near the corner pocket opposite that of the 2. He made a bold decision to go for the 9 via the 2 using a draw shot with right english. He pocketed the 2 and the cue ball hit the 9, pocketing it! As Taka raised his hand in victory, the cue ball still kept rolling (because of the english and all) and steadily made its way into the side pocket! Thus, a scratch! "Anak ng P*%^#!" exclaimed the Japanese national! (Yes, he knows how to speak Filipino!) Daddy Lester regained his composure and tried a 3-9 combination - successfully! - ending the match at 7-6! Wow! Talk about one exciting finish!
