All PH pool bets crash out in World 9-Ball

/ 10:39 PM September 18, 2015

The vaunted Filipino challenge fizzled out in the World 9-ball Championship on Thursday, with all five hopefuls crashing out of contention in Doha.

Former world No. 1 Dennis Orcollo was the last of the Filipinos to fall after barging into the quarterfinals only to be waylaid by American Shane van Boening.

Orcollo’s defeat was stunning as he flashed good form to best American Hunter Lombardi, 11-7, in the last 32, and former world champion Darren Appleton of Britain, 11-2, in the last 16.
