MANILA---Baseth "Kingpin" Mocaibat of Dasmariñas City, Cavite reigned supreme in the 2023 IPHA Joy Hey International Open dubbed as The Philippine Stop after beating Emmanuel "Moymoy" Delgado of Quezon City on Friday, December 8, 2023 at the A1 Texas billiard club, Ayala Malls Manila Bay (formerly Ayala Malls Bay Area), Parañaque City.
Mocaibat drew an 11-10 victory in their race-to-thirteen series, two hours clock time to take home the US$15,000 top purse while Delgado, settled for the runner-up purse of US$7,000.
