Bucktooth never used the jump shot when we played in the 80's and there were many times that the jump shot would of saved him,but he continued to kick. I played Tooth in his pool room in Castro Valley, 9 ball giving him the 6 ball for $100 a game. At that time I wasn't the player every one knew as Pittsburgh Billy, due to a drug problem that diminished my judgement. As he was beating me I asked him to raise the bet, but he wouldn't and kept saying to me to get out the way I got in.I played so poorly against him that he could of given me the 6 ball,and he proceded to beat me 50 games for $100 a game for a total of $5,000. I quit playing pool after that realizing that if I didn't it would be detrimental to my health and my bankroll.I went to Las Vegas and stayed at Circus Circus for 8 weeks where a friend of mine was comped with a free room.At that time if you were a good player the casinos would let you stay as long as you wanted,unlike today.I used their spa daily taking steam baths,and getting rubbed down.After I left Circus Circus I moved in with my sister for about 6 weeks ,she also lived in Vegas. A few days after I moved out of my sisters home the Stardust tournament started,Paulie Jansco asked me to play in his tournament for a 75% 25% split ,I really didn't want to but I did because I liked Paulie. I didn't play very well in the tournament, because I hadn't played in over 3 months. It was then that Tooth made an appearance at the Stardust and started to humiliate me in front of other players during the gambling hours of the day. I didn't have any money so I borrowed $500 from Jack Perkins down stairs in the card room.Iwent back to the tournament room and asked Tooth if he wanted to play 5 ahead for $500 he said yes.I beat him then asked him to bet $1,000 in a 5 ahead set which he agreed to.I again beat him and asked him to play 7 ahead for the $2,000 which he agreed to and beat him again.I then asked him to play for $4,000 which he didn't agree,so I proceded to beat him 8 more 7 ahead sets for $2,000 a set for a total of $19,500. He was also betting about $500 to $700 a set on the side, so consequently he lost over $25,000. To me that doesn't look like a very good gambler ,but it does look like a foolish chaser. The reason i'm telling this story is because he has attempted to slander me several times,saying that I jarred him,or someone else did. The last time he said that was at the Onepocket Hall Of Fame dinner, which was in very poor taste,which I will never forget.Incidentally I beat him 2 other times before Castro Valley. Well Mr. Cornfed or Bucktooth whatever your name is ,chew on that and let me know how it came out. Goodbye
