Despite the fulfilling victory, the 40-year-old Surigao native had to earn the win the hard way, pulling off 9-8 escape as he engaged in a neck-and-neck battle with The Kien Do of Vietnam. Orcollo got the best of his Vietnamese foe in the final rack, emerging triumphant in a safety contest to clean out the table and stake claim of the regional biennial meet’s 10-ball championship.
Seasoned veteran Warren Kiamco also suffered the same fate, losing at the hands of Toh Lian Han, 4-9, bowing out of the tourney.
