A total of 11 players participated Congratulations to the Dominick for winning his first ever tournament, playing his first tournament back after a 18 month break Thanks to Will for GMing and Quentin, Rob, and Will for standing down from playing a round or two. New venue is great, thanks to Grant Steel for sorting this out. Players player went to Yann by a large margin. Well done Yann, he also played a GM position in the first round and of the three (Yann, Quentin and Will) was the only one to get a survival in both games and thus got best GM position. Thanks for coming to New Zealand Yann. Will Black
