Biado humbles Yang in 9-Ball
MANILA, Philippines - Carlo Biado downed Taiwanese Yang Ching-shun, 9-3, to win the Philippine Bigtime Billiards (PBB) Face-Off Series dubbed Philippines versus Asia at the Pagcor Airport Casino in Parañaque late Saturday.
Biado played steady to cash in on the winner’s break format, winning five straight racks on run-outs to break from a 2-all count en route to victory.
The win, worth $5,000, thus pulled Team Phl within 2-3, against Team Asia in the event’s new format.
Ko Pin-yi of Chinese-Taipei beat pool legend Efren “Bata” Reyes, 9-4, last Feb. 18 but Francisco “Django” Bustamante rallied to beat Ko, 9-7, last Feb. 25.
Chang Jung-lin of Chinese-Taipei, on the other hand, beat Lee Vann Corteza, 9-7, last March 3, then edged Dennis Orollo, 9-8, last March 10.
Meanwhile, the PBB Face Off series resumes with Yang going up against Bustamante on March 24. Chang Yu Long of Chinese-Taipei will take on Ronnie Alcano on March 31.
