ooooh thanks everyone for the nice reply's and support.
i also have to thank the wife for the nice welcome home, with a big bottle of champaign ready to do some celebration dances in the middle of the livingroom
to answer the question: YES victory tasted sweet !!
the next morning i woke up, first thing i did was to check the trophy was there to be sure it wasn't just a good dream silly me.
to put my feet back to the ground, 1 day after the victory i played my worst pool again. i know what my problem is (mechanical problem), but i can't find a permanent solution for it (YET!), working hard on it (for almost a year now). once that glitch is gone, i know i'll be more consistent, and thats the only thing that stands between me and more victory's.
ps: if i can't find a permanent solution before this summer, i'll invest the $$ of the tittle to pay for a snooker-instructor. I think thats where my earnings belong. Don't spend it on alcohol, spend it on your game!
to bad there are no pool-instructors in my country.
back to the drawing board.
no pain, no gain

It's great to see people win that don't expect to win. It's a much better story when it comes from the heart.
The first step it takes to win a tournament, is paying your entry fee. After that anything can happen.

You're so right Tom. Anything can and does happen in a pool tournament.
Some people are simply sitting on the sidelines and DEPRIVING themselves of some of the best memories that pool has to offer.
