Back-to-Back Billiard Wins for PagulayanCanadian 30K Tour / Newmarket, ONT

by Willy Hermoza and Tony Butera
Alex Pagulayan won his second Canadian 30K Tour stop in a row the weekend of February 10-11, defeating a tough, 64-person field. Players such as Chris Orme, Scott McDonald, and Rob Brandenburg tried to stop the former world champion from taking first for the second event in a row but could not prevail.
Dunlop Billiards in Newmarket, ONT, was the host site, and the fans came out in droves for “The Lion.” To reach the hot seat match, Pagulayan fought off Brian McDougall 9-5 to match up with Mike Roberts. A convincing 10-5 sent Roberts to the one-loss side. In the quarterfinals, Dennis Rhodes eked out a double-hill match over McDougall to face Roberts, who was relegated to fourth place when Rhodes scored another hill-hill match. Patiently waiting in the hot seat, Pagulayan made quick work of Rhodes, who was thrilled just to be playing the champ, and won the event with a 10-1 score.
Results:
1st Alex Pagulayan
2nd Dennis Rhodes
3rd Mike Roberts
4th Brian McDougall
5th Mike Loponen
Ryan Clements
7th Mike Leigh
Chris Orme
