Filipinos, 2 Can Play The Game – 2021 US Open 9-Ball, Where Carlo Biado Is Champion & Wife Niecky Quebec Is Winner!
This is the true story of Filipinos Carlo Biado and wife Niecky Quebec who actually helped him win Sunday, 19 September, the 2021 US Open 9-Ball Championship at Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA. Prize: $50,000 (
His opponent, Singapore’s Aloysius
Yapp, never had any remote idea he was fighting a Filipino Husband &
Wife Team!
This
is the Carlo Biado 9-Ball Championship story nobody else is telling you.
First, I am proud to say I and Carlo are Ilocano, and we
have roots from Rosario, La Union. I used to play pool myself – we called it
“billiards” – until college in the early 1960s. I was an A-player too: I could
defeat you with a “love set,” meaning, you never get to play while I pocket all
the balls and finish the game all by myself! Magic? You need nerves, plus experience
plus an experimental mind like that of the incomparable billiards “Magician” Efren “Bata” Reyes, another Filipino.
Philip Matel says
(23 September 2021, “New Champ Carlo Biado Made Magic In US Open Thanks To
Fellow Filipino Efren 'Bata' Reyes[1],”
TV5, espn.com):
Newly crowned US Open
Pool champion Carlo Biado has billiards legend Efren "Bata" Reyes to
thank for serving as an inspiration in his momentous victory.
Philip is incorrect! Carlo made magic in the US Open, thanks
to his wife Niecky! Philip himself says:
In the early goings of
the contest, Yapp took a commanding five-rack lead, 8-3, which rattled the
Filipino.
However, a familiar
face in the crowd soothed Biado's nerves, and he then found the resolve to
respond.
Carlo
responded with new resolve and went on to win the championship! What would he
have done without his wife encouraging him right there and then?!
Mark Giongco
says, “Down, 3-8, Biado won 10 straight racks to claim the prestigious title”
(19 September 2021, “Carlo Biado Rallies To Win US Open 9-Ball Title,” Sports, Inquirer.net). “The 37-year-old Biado
became the first Filipino to win the tournament since Efren “Bata” Reyes in
1994.”
So, I say, actually a Husband & Wife Team jointly won
the 2021 US Open 9-Ball Championship!
(Lesson:
Husband, love your wife. Wife, love your husband. Do things together whenever
you can!)
(Now then, you look up again. From their Facebook page, the
lower image shows husband & wife doing their Tik Tok – with love.)
The wife gave her husband encouragement when he most needed
it!
Philip Matel
says Carlo said:
My wife was there in
front of the crowd. She told me to relax and not think about the bad chances I
got with the ball. I just needed to play my game. I felt I was going to win,
and she told me the same thing before playing. That's why I felt good.
Now,
watch!
