Immonen 1 Salvas 1

Mika breaks on the right and makes the right wing ball. (First time).

Misses an easy 1 - 3 combo.

Salvas rapids the table for a 1 1 score.
 
How tight do the tables seem this year? Are the few misses due to tighter pockets or just bad shots? Seems a ton of balls are going in on the break and runouts are fairly common atm.
 
Immonen 2 Salvas 1

Luc breaks on the left and hidden on the 1. Calls a pushout. Leaves Mika with the tough cut 1. Mika goes for a safety. Luc jumps and flukes a safety.

Mika jumps a table lenght 1 near the right head corner. Makes the 1 for a good position on the 2.
