Kiaran Murphy won, with 8 wins from 10 games. Danny Johnston completed his first triple peel (without bisques). Daniel Eismann (Dublin University) played in his first tournament.
There was an international presence in the form of Campbell Morrison. Ed Cunningham won the Sunday prize (Easter egg) and Simon Williams the Monday prize (whiskey). Kiaran's prize was a voucher for the Trentuno cafe.
