Val Arceo beats Ruben Zaballa 7-4 to capture 7th Asian 9 Ball Tour



After last month’s Philippine Independence Day tournament defeat, it was sweet revenge for the Filipinos as they swept all the last 4 slots of the finals with Val Arceo crushing Ruben Zaballa 7-5 to capture the 7th Asian 9 Ball Tournament at the Centre Carougeois de Billard.

It was a tight battle from the beginning as both players fought tit-for- tat until the 10th rack when Arceo was able to lead by a rack and the first to move over the hill. His splendid performance in the final rack was the icing to the cake as he proved to be unstoppable in pocketing the last few balls before he put in the final 9 ball to capture the championship.

In the battle for the 3rd place, women’s champion PJ Rojo,demolished veteran player Raymundo Ruben 7-4. Rojo totally outplayed Ruben in offense as well as defense. Her precision shots and safeties were too much for the veteran Ruben. On the other hand, Ruben seemed to be having problems with his ball pocketing, as well as his ball positioning.

The Philippine Billiard Club-Geneva, the main organizer of the Asian Tours would like to thank our supporters, the players, the fans, and the Centre Carougeois de Billards for its continuing support.

Merci Beaucoup!!!
