Congratulations Mika!

I was lucky enough to play Mika at the S.B.E. this year. His game is amazing!

At least in recent memory... One cannot forget Nick Varner in 1989.... he won at least 8 major pro events.

Good memory Max! Nick won ELEVEN times that year! Not all major events, some were regional but still an amazing year. The first time a pool player won over 100K in one year as well. Mika has won TWELVE times this year all told, with at least five being major events. And well over 200K in winnings!

Funny that Varner was also the only other back to back US open winner...kinda spooky if you ask me :speechless:

What do you all think has separated him from the field? Besides making more 9 and 10 balls, lol.

Must be the new cue

Nah, as "Eric." pointed out, if you ask Mika, it was his back hand.
