At what mark does Mika start drama?

[@JohnS-il1dr]

Mika makes Earl look like a real gentleman.

[@TomChenLife]

Did Mika throw another childish temper tantrum?

[@MGamalNasser]

🤣🤣🤣

[@XSkillsx88]

Hahahaha😂😂

[@anadsuji4783]

I was looking for this comment 😂

[@bpraise517]

Dude is terrible for pool

[@emmanuelgonzalez2184]

I said nine ball!!

[@orlandogonzalez8034]

I love to watch Mika the crybaby Immonen loose.

[@Warren_Flatt]

i would be afraid to play Mika, he's an angry loose cannon and will snap at any moment.

[@donkeydiehard879]

Man, I love playing people like that! I feed of that energy. My favorite is when they break shafts during their rage fits.😂 It's impossible for anyone to play at their best if their in their own head. Can get away with it at the amateur level, not so much at pro level.

[@Ding27]

😂

[@peteralfudalan3225]

me too..

[@viewniverse7012]

Always happy to see immonen lose 😂😂😂😂

[@gordonsullivan2694]

Why am I watching 3 times as much floor than table?

[@donkeydiehard879]

Because that's always how it is when the play here. Not every company has the technology that matchroom does. I'm just happy I get to watch pool.

[@BoteBoat]

I surmise a major reason is paid advertising for the Sponsors, etc. shown at the sides and also to include the scorecards on the table in the back.

[@MikeyD22]

Wow, the commentator really beat up Mika for his demeanor without any outburst being displayed. Four times before the 15 minute mark. No need for that. Just call the match.

[@ahnafbinislam7921]

While it may have been a bit out of line, you cannot blame him because Mika has shown unprofessional and unsportsmanlike behaviour previously.

[@TomChenLife]

That’s because he deserves it. He acts like a child.

[@MikeyD22]

@@TomChenLife A professional commentator is supposed to start fresh and call the damn match. Maybe okay to bring it up once regarding Mika being too over emotional in the past, but four times in the first 14 minutes was ridiculous. We get it - Mika's got a temper. So do many athletes in all sports. It's what makes them great. Others succeed while being robots.

[@TomChenLife]

@@MikeyD22 it’s fair game since all these commentators ever do with Ko Pin Chung is talk about how small he is.

[@MikeyD22]

@tomchen888 Like they're telling us something we don't know or can't see for ourselves. Lame.

[@TimZ007]

At 11:20 I feel like if Ko missed the 9 for any reason it should be concession of the rack because its basically sharking to stand up and approach the table while your opponent is shooting. Even if you cant see him you can sometimes hear the movement. Just the fact of an object moving behind you gives that odd changing of the sounds in the room which hints to someone one behind you. I feel like that some APA 2 moves right there.

[@donkeydiehard879]

Wtf?! You're definitely the guy that treats apa like you aren't playing for peanuts.😂 He barely moved and paused as he shot. If mental game is lacking that much, you have bigger issues. Not like he's standing in his peripheral. That I could understand. I swear pool players are the biggest babies. Only group that comes close is bowlers.

[@trueamerican2305]

Everybody and I mean Everybody knows about the "mika shark technique"... he's a dirty player.. and he's more known for tantrums than winning

[@leoyu2142]

but he's handsome🤣

[@adamaddamus1327]

That's the only person in pool scene that I am always happy when he looses. I hate his disrespectful attitute

[@turner9324]

I CALLED 9-BALL !!!

[@billyhorton5779]

Mika's game is very predictable anymore, he shows up, plays so so, in the end, wont get very far.......deal with it.

[@hakuamper365]

Can someone put the timestamps where the drama happens, i cant watch thw whole thing tnx

[@alwayssearching1882]

Always a pleasure to watch Mr. Hothead lose. He's a detriment to the game.

[@roadrunner381]

If mika brings attention to himself for the wrong reasons then he deserves criticism, but it's time to move on from the Deluna incident!

[@paolobanez8717]

👎mika

[@realRay_ray]

It's not just the deluna match...

[@_Ramen-Vac_]

Never touch the rock with your hand -unless it's your ball-in-hand turn. derp. Simple rule, simple's it gets.

[@Chris-sg8bl]

30:51 why illegal break here?

[@missmolly5129]

What's with the tracksuit pants? 😮 He used to be such a slick cutie.

[@pokemonmaster7095]

Guess I’ve been spoiled by Billy Incardona, Jeremy Jones, and Earl Strickland’s commentary. This commentator spent more time talking about things unrelated to what was happening on the table than actually talking about each rack. Seems like he’s not knowledgeable about pool and doesn’t want to make the wrong call for each shot. Wish he focused on the actual match though.

[@donkeydiehard879]

Jeremy Jones is so freaking good. By far the best announcer these days. Knows each players tendencies and rarely throws out blind guesses.

[@medallion39]

I think it’s Rico dixs commentating. Definitely knows what he’s talking about

[@billysikes1374]

Don't forget about Grady

[@pokemonmaster7095]

@@medallion39if it is Rico, then he’s definitely a knowledgeable player. I just wish he focused on the match, shot-for-shot because for the amateurs, like myself, I like to listen to commentary to see if they would play something a different way and why for certain shots. I don’t typically listen to commentary if 90% of it is not on the match

[@excxmoody]

Be nice if more players in situations like that played short side also instead of trying to get ball in hand for easy combos. Speed control.

[@mmanacguy]

Mika Imawoman

[@RichardsWorld]

Good thing you don't have to call the pocket.

[@Tedsterlab]

Mika is known for choking in a 1rack sudden-death against efren, to make efren the champion of that event.. blowing a 9rack lead in a race to 11 against svb, which made svb the world champion.. and lots and lots of cringy outburst that no one ask for.. #washedup

[@ryan4452]

I believe it was a 7 rack lead on SVB. 10-3, SVB won 11-10

[@jonbrown3981]

Am I the only person who enjoys watching Mika and Earl Strickland lose ?

[@desireeanne916]

This commentator was terrible and disrespectful to this game. Also I feel my opinion only. He threw a dig at another commentator during his revengful moment. This was over volume/audio. I hope this industry will take a closer look at who they want for their platform next time Good luck!

[@paolobanez8717]

No tantrum mika?????just be nice,now we know your color is👌🤦

[@JohnBowl14690]

Ko won because wood sticks are far better than carbon fiber. 🤣🤣

[@jeowinteo2901]

nahhh😂 i think ko won because he has a better temper than mika😂

[@rogerscottcathey]

I say let the cue ball be Mika. It might have settled on the shelf hooked. Hasty man.

[@jorgeluis9488]

Immonen tirándole fotos a ko pin yi 😅😅😅😅😅

[@edsantos6627]

Bye Ice..😅

[@chow2027]

Wrong side English spin

[@raskolnjikov1]

Did Mika cry a lot?

[@anadsuji4783]

Hahaha

[@romelmanalansan8254]

An old childish player

[@jeromeabdon8405]

Mika the crying man😂😂😂😂

[@edwardgunawan2689]

mika too emotional

[@Ding27]

Mika is no longer winnable these days becoz of his childish like attitude 😂

[@billysikes1374]

Shouldn't say anything about Mika starting shit, I dont like him at all but DeLuna was 100% wrong with that baby shit

[@trueamerican2305]

Mika is not Top tier... a Wednesday night league player at best.

[@JohnS-il1dr]

Hes world class. Fargo rate was 798 or so.

[@ryan4452]

He’d smoke you in a match. Dude might have anger problems but he still plays good

[@trueamerican2305]

@ryan4452 is this mika??? Hey mika... your a clown... and no you wouldn't smoke me in a match.. and if you did bring that energy it would only get you into trouble. Lol

[@jeromeabdon8405]

Mika vuv() ka

[@hbgstorm]

I've notice the comments are always against mika and making fun of him because of that jeff de luna match, but no one is saying how ridiculous jeff also was because that combo was the most obvious combo in history of all pool, it was more obvious than non-combos and he went all " you did not call it" oh come on you might as well say that even when a single ball is in a cliffhanger. You really want to win a match because your opponent forgot to call the most obvious combo ever ? Lets say you win a world championship because your opponent forgot to call that obvious combo, that world champion would be the biggest joke champion ever.

[@txtmodcarlo]

Rules are set to call it even if it's so obvious, and besides the Ref called it a foul, not Deluna. Those rules are there to be followed and be imposed on anyone. Very simple really.

[@hbgstorm]

@@txtmodcarlo yes ofcourse rules are rules if you want to be an asshole player you can always play that style , for instance when your opponent makes the 9ball and the white ball if rolling slowely nowhere near any pocket and he takes the balls out of the pockets you can call that a faul ofcourse but should you be like that ? Or when you try to hit a safe and you miss it and the cue ball still rolling very slowely no where near any other balls and your opponent takes ball in hand, you can go and say faul and you'd be right, it's your ball in hand instedt because your opponent didn't follow that rule. That's a very ugly style.

[@paolobanez8717]

👎

[@paolobanez8717]

Thats okey to you,by the way ref called it not jef,why he need to shout???

[@txtmodcarlo]

@@hbgstorm The ref is the one calling it not the player, why are you insisting it's the player. Your making things more complicated that it was😂

[@JJ_178]

Mika is time for retiring…….too old against younger player…

[@ajw_3153]

these days Mika is always blowing it. Just when you think he’s gonna win, he hits some poor shots

[@jadams1722]

*Another tough beat for Mika… he is can’t win* 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@michaeltrumph121]

Mika should have won

[@MikeyD22]

Well, the fun of enjoying this match without knowing who won in advance, certainly went down the drain. Appreciate it. 🤡

[@VinayPai]

@@MikeyD22 Maybe you shouldn't read the comments before watching the match. You think people in the comments shouldn't talk about the match?

[@raskolnjikov1]

if that were true he would have won then

[@MikeyD22]

@VinayPai I don't read the comments before matches. I clicked on the thumbnail, the page opened up, and the spoiler was right there out in the open - first comment.

[@trueamerican2305]

Mika is a bum
