Alex with no teeth? Pleaaasse, no height is enoough !

The last two years, Dennis had Alex`s number, the only time I remember Alex winning was at the now demolished Coronado Lanes in Makati. I think it was because of Dennis` style of playing, deliberate. They were playing from 50 to 100 k in pesos. In terms of number of matches, Dennis still has...

Are you referring to Ted Lerner? He sometimes does the play by play for t.v..

Here in Manila, we have what is known as a `Local Rule`, if the cue ball hits rail first before hitting the object ball, no balls have to contact the rail anymore. Its considered a good shot. However, `international rule` on good hits can be applied if it is stated before start of a game.

Local rotation rules differ slightly from what Roy has stated in his reply. They don`t allow jump shots(even with playing cue), they don`t apply 3-foul loss rule, and when foul is committed, except for scratch, incoming player has option to play the balls as is or spot the object ball and shoot...

Ronnie really gives handicaps using the bridge or rest in all his shots, including the break, holding the bridge as shown above.

I agree, 15-ball rotation is a fairer gauge of one`s ability. Much like snooker, a player must accumulate points to win and not by merely pocketing the n1ne-ball. Luck factor would be lessened if not diminished. It would be very hard to win a snooker game on the basis of a fluke shot...

Before beating Orcullo two in a row, Alex also beat Corteza twice and Gallego once for no less than $ 2,000.oo, some for $ 4,000.00. He s on a roll.

Just to update actions at one side for Jay, Alex beat Dennis 30-27 for $ 10,000.oo two nights ago then again for $ 14,000.oo last night with a score of 35-31. Alex made 8 rack run after falling behind 9-19 and was able to tie at 22-22. It was nip and tuck from then on until another 5...

Abu Sayyaf`s real name is Panfilo Damu-ag, he`s from Bacolod, i doubt it if he`s a Muslim, it`s just a monicker. He, along with Luat and Corteza are sponsored by Jonathan, also of Bacolod.

Ronnie owes the BSCP(Billiard and Snooker Congress of the Philippines) an apology, in the last National Open, he, along with some of his team mates were complaining about the soft break of eventual champion Alex Pagulayan and runner-up Gandy Valle. To the point of threatening not to play if no...

Ironically, during the recent BSCP (Billiards and Snooker Congress of the Philippines) sponsored National 9-Ball tournament semi-finals, Alcano was complaining about Alex Pagulayan and Gandy Valle`s use of the soft break.

Reason given by Yang`s camp was that Orcullo`s sponsor arrived too late with the money. Lame? You decide.

You`re correct, last year`s WPC was played with winners break in the knockout stages, however alternate break was used in the group stages.

I think this is the game he played against Taiwan`s Chen, who filed a protest after. It was on the 2nd day of WPC at the 2nd floor of PICC. I got there just as Earl was muttering to himself while leaving.

I can`t seem to see any diffrence if its odd or even number of games. Anyway, they played race to 8 in the group stages, race to 10 in the 64 and 32 rounds, race to 11 in the last 16, quarter and semi-final, 17 in the final.

Alternate break or winner` break, each has it`s own good and bad points. Fyi, in the last BCA open, Efren Reyes was able to come back from being 10-1 down in a race to 11 with alternate break format against Allen Hopkins and win. It`s possible!

FYI Cuy Cuy is Yen Makabenta`s son.

The european is Darren Appleton. FYI Jeff won 30-28. Darren came back from 22-28 down and tied at 28 but came out dry on the break. Jeff broke and ran out after winning that rack.
