On his way to the Dixieland Classic, Pagulayan also won the Big Tyme Classic One Pocket Division.

Fellow Filipino players were also top finishers in the Big Tyme Classic One Pocket:

  • 4th Francisco Bustamante
  • 5th/6th Dennis Orcollo and Warren Kiamco

Pagulayan also won the 2018 Scotty Townsend Memorial One Pocket.

Pagulayan’s bio states he was born in Cabagan, Isabela and has been playing pool since he was 10 years old.

Pagulayan considers winning the World 9-Ball title in 2004 as one of his best winning moments.
