'Dodong Panacan' wins 10-ball title in QC
DAVAO City cue master Leonardo "Dodong Panacan" Didal beat Lawrence Anthony Aguilar, 9-5, to pocket the Star Billiards 10-Ball Tournament second edition title at the just-concluded Star Billiards Center in Grace Village, Quezon City.
Didal, who finished runner-up to 2006 SMB Philippine 9-Ball Open Champion Francisco "Django" Bustamante, took the first rack before Aguillar grabbed a commanding 5-1 lead of the winner's break format cuefest.
But Dabawenyo ace came back strong by winning eight straight racks to bag the P20,000 cash prize.
He earlier eliminated Jimmy Deauna, 8-4, in their semi-finals match.
