HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF

Once again it was a very close finish and with one round to go it was the two founding teams Jakarta and Bangkok who were only separated by one frame to fight it out.

Both teams have been the heavyweights of the competition and as in the first APC back in 2011 it was Bangkok Heat that had the momentum to win by two frames 103 to 101.

This was the sixth time that Bangkok Heat have won the Asia Pool Challenge leading Jakarta who have won it four times.

The quality of pool improved again even with covid taking its toll over the last two years.

APC Bangkok 2022 was a great event as it was the first time in three years that the event could be held, and it was the 10th Anniversary. We had the largest number of overseas players and supporters attend this event. It was a special event for the players from all over Asia who were able to reunite after such a long time.
