Mika is Pissed
- Thread starter poolnoob
- Start date
I for one have lost many games against opponents that I am better than.
Having stated that....thats why we play the game.
I have also won many games and matches against stronger player then myself, it all shakes out in the end.
But yes it can really piss you off when you look back on a match and know where you went wrong.

Mika is worse than Earl when he loses. He's a great player when he winning but he's one of the worse losers in pool.
not a very personable guy either....he was rude at the galveston million dollar tourny..didnt even say thank you when i let him borrow the rack on the table i was playing on since his table didnt have one...
He does not come across as a nice guy to me, would much prefer guys like Thorsten or Ralf any day. Guess he must have hated playing Efren cos he gets so lucky all the time. Fwiw, the guy that beat him might not be a world beater, but he have beaten Wu in Asia on TV once before, no one is unbeatable.
Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser. To me there is no comparison between Mika and Earl, not even close. I happen to like Mika's intensity. That's one reason he's such a great champion.

I'm not talking about being a bad sport, and I don't think Mika is one anyway. What I meant is that if you aren't a little unhappy about losing, then something is wrong. Believe me Ralf, Shane and Thorsten don't like losing any more than Mika does. I've seen the disgust on their faces as well, when they haven't played up to par or lost a close one.
When you play pool for a living, you travel to china and then you lose because your opponent constantly get lucky I would be pissed too. This is wrong with pool too much luck involved. Your opponent miss and you are snookered on the next ball. You are punished by a mistake from your opponent? Lol I don't see any justice in it.
All the great players hate losing, its just that some handle it better than others. Sore loser = spoilt brat.
To be honest its a thing that every champion has in common, I think that most of the best in the world gets really irritated after they lose a match, and I mean everyone, Maybe the level is a tiny bit different, with a bit of poker faces and all that, but believe me if I tell you, most of the best in the world really HATE Losing very much, I remember one time I saw a match of efren reyes when he lost, he really gets upset, maybe you can't see it clearly in his face, but wait for 3 mins, then go check him up, you will see how angry/sad he is, and for that matter , every champion is the same way, but we all know some people can't hide their feelings very good, like Mika or Earl, when you see their face, you know exactly how they feel.
but I think to be a great player, you must hate losing "SO MUCH", or you won't achieve being one of the tops, my 2cents.

Of course nobody likes losing. He just got his overinflated ego bruised.
Talking smack about a guy who just beat you in a long race is childish. You got beat Mika. Suck it up and take your loss like a man.
Does he buy all of his clothes at Baby Gap too?
