Serge Das from Belgium - 9 Ball Champion in Cyprus.
DAS AND YILDIRIM TAKE TITLES IN CYPRUS
Serge Das was one of the few international class pool players to make the trip to Cyprus for this annual event, sponsored this year by Dr. Fazil Kucuk, but the highly ranked Belgian player was handsomely rewarded for his endeavours after taking the 9 Ball title and the 2,000 Euro top prize at the luxurious Salamis Bay Conti Resort.
"The hotel was very nice, all players got free hotel full board (they had a deal with the government I think), the weather was about 30 degrees Celsius every day so I was relaxing a lot at the swimming pool. Guvenc was my toughest opponent, I lost to him in the semi's of 8-Ball 7-6, and I played him in the final of 9-Ball."
Das's confidence levels were obviously high as he said, "I was preparing well, so I really wanted to play two finals, I nearly managed it, the field wasn't THAT big, but some good Turkish and Cyprus players and two good youngsters from Israel.
What will he do with the prize money? "I put everything on black in the casino... And lost it" - he jokes of course, but then reveals that it will come in very handy as he leaves for the Philippines around November 15th and he will, "spend it for my trip to the World 10-Ball Championships".
First though comes the EuroTour in Portugal, he leaves on Monday, and as usual he will be travelling with fellow Belgians Pascal Budo and Noël Bruynooghe - congratulations Serge, and good luck to you all in Portugal.
