Orcollo won the gold in the 2013 SEA Games in Myanmar.
Meanwhile, in English billiards, compatriot Luis Saberdo fell short against Vietnam’s Phan Hoai Nam 3-2 after leading by two frames to start the game.
Still to finish his game is Benjamin Gueverra against Tran Le Anh Tuan of the same event.
Slated to see action later are Carlo Biado in 10-ball singles against Malaysia’s Darryl Chia, and Francisco dela Cruz against Yuttapop Pakpoj of Thailand in 1-cushion carom, both at 7 p.m.
