Cisero was a good man, one of the finest I ever met. He was the strong silent type. Cisero had the most unique stroke of any top pool player I ever saw. On his final stroke he would take the cue back, hesitate a full second at the top of his high back swing, give a little hitch and then make his final follow through. You had to see it to believe it. Meanwhile he never missed a ball! :smile:

I agree with all of the comments about Cisero Murphy. I would particularly echo Jay's comments about his stroke. I had the pleasure of watching him play in a 14.1 tournament. He shot just like Jay described. It changed how I think about shooting. When I am shooting best, I also stop, focus on what I want to do, and make it happen. Too bad there is such limited video of him playing.
