I got a chance to play him today in a tourney. He seemed like a nice gentleman. I meant to ask him what cue he was using, but he left before I could. It looked to be very nice.

He was traveling thru Arkansas visiting family, but said he was from Portland, OR.

Anyone know the guy?
 
Looks like a different Bill there.

Yeah, Bill is good people though and a gentleman on and off the table. Sounds like you must've won the match..?
 
That's not the Bill I played in that video with CJ Wiley.

Yes, I won, but it was mentally and physically draining. I shot well and got a few rolls to jump out 5-1. A couple of games later, I'm on the hill at 6-2.

Fast-forward another 30 minutes or so and it's hill-hill 6-6. I honestly don't remember shooting during those 4 racks. Maybe an odd kick here or there.

He ends up running the last rack down to the 8B and left himself dead straight on the short rail. He jawed the 8 trying to cheat the Diamond pocket a tad to get himself off the rail for the 9B. I was able to get out pretty easily after that, but I must say.....I've never felt more crushed after winning a match. A total emotional letdown, as I was on cruise control and it almost got away from me. After that I was helpless as a kitten in my next match.

Anyway, I wished I had asked Bill about his cue, as it looked pretty classy from several feet away.

I bought him a beer after the match, as he was a fine player and a good sport.
 
Yep, he can play a little, too!

Hit him up on FB and ask about the cue. He's an easy-going guy and I'm sure he'd be happy to say what he shoots with.
