    Henry Li cantered to victory with 5.5/6 . He was 1.5 ahead after five rounds.
    Galway was very enjoyable as always. The hotel in particular was great. The managers of some of the other hotels that hold tournaments would do well to go and stay in the Menlo Park for a few days to see how a hotel should be run. Everything spotlessly clean, fantastic breakfasts, lovely rooms, great showers, very good food, very friendly and efficient hotel and bar staff etc etc.

    Is there any live game or somewhere to see the strandings

    Sorry for not replying earlier, but I don't have time to read boards.ie whilst running the tournament. I'm afraid that we didn't have the facilities for live boards, but the results and crosstables will be up on our website shortly, when we have recovered from the weekend, but sodacat11 has revealed the winner of the Masters: Henry Li won with a round to spare, easing up in the last round to draw with Alex Baburin, having beaten IM Vladimir Sveshnikov in round 2.
