Biado wins in PBB Series
FILIPINO star Carlo “The Black Tiger” Biado avenged the loss of his fellow Bugsy player after scoring a 9-4 win over Taiwanese ace Chang Jung-lin in the Philippine Bigtime Billiards (PBB) Face Off Series late Friday at the Pagcor Airport Casino in Parañaque City.
Biado, the 2011 BSCP National Pool Championsips ruler, exacted revenge over Chang, who beat his fellow Bugsy Promotions stablemate Roberto “Superman” Gomez, 9-7, in last week’s PBB Series.
The win was worth $5,000 for Biado while Chang settled for $2,500 in this race-to-9, winner’s break format tournament organized by the Mega Sports World and BRKHRD Corp.
“Sinabi ko sa sarili ko na kailangan ibawi ko si (Roberto) Gomez at ayoko ng mapahiya pa tayo sa harap ng mga kababayan natin,” said the La Union native Biado, currently World No.16. “Buti naman nagbunga y’ung ginawa kong paghahanda kay Chang.
