Doing some Googling for news on this (a number of hits now) I ran across
this item. Wouldn't have thought twice but considering what's been going on and the Montana connection, I thought this was interesting.

Okay. I wasn't going to post this earlier. But I think it's worth at least a mention.
There is a william willis mcmahon listed in Scott's frat buddies.
There is a william/willy mcmahon that cross references to the hendon mob database. I have no idea if this connects at all. He is listed out of Atlantic City in that db.
I went looking thru all the frat buddies hours ago for any connections like that and sat on it because it (still) has no real meaning.
But that screen name and real name suddenly looks a tad strange with that DB and big win at AP doesn't it?
can anyone dig further into that?
fwiw- in the frat records mcmahon is listed as being from missoula.
Also- an apparent new account at Absolute.

McBill seems like a pretty reasonable sn for someone with that name. Can someone please add this sn to the list we'd like the auditors to check?

Over the weekend, Absolute Poker made one more poker player's dreams come true. "MCBILL",
a new player to Absolute Poker, was the lucky winner of the 5th Absolute Dream Package.

The biggest difference with MCBILL is that he comes from a different generation of poker. MCBILL started almost 10 years before CUTIEPI314 was even born. From the very beginning, MCBILL was hooked on poker. His first real win came in college when he played a 5/10 game and took home $700. From there to here he has studied the art of cards and has become a very successful high limit cash game player.
MCBILL has played in WPT and the WSOP over the years but credits himself to be a better cash player. Cash or tournament play, MCBILL brings confidence to the table.
HendonMob? This guy would probably good enough to win w/o making it so obvious.
