Pankaj Advani reigns

Coimbatore : Pankaj Advani of PSPB defeated Kamal Chawla of Railways 6-2 to emerge champion in the snooker tournament for the Reliance Mobile Trophy at the CBA Hall here.

Pankaj made a break of 49 in the opening frame. However, Kamal came up with small breaks to level scores before the World champion potted the black to seal the frame.
