SummerJobs - 13/7 Lars
Written by: LarsI was so fortunate to win a summer job at Red Kings, from the 4 250 $ freerolls leaderboard, where it seems that I was the only player that hit the final table twice, and considering there were 800-900 players in each tournament I believe that is was a successful performance, but damn it’s a hard job, in the summerheat we have in Denmark at the moment.
I have to earn 500 points within a week, and have been staked 200 $ from Red Kings to work with. All that is brilliant, but considered I have a job, a wife that have just had a bag surgery and 3 kids to look after also, the time to reach the 500 points target is slim, but then again it’s free money so off course I’ll give it a try.
But I have a major problem. I’m a 98 % MTT player and suddenly I have to adjust my play to cash and SNG, because I have absolutely no chance in hell to reach the 500 point just my playing MTT’s, so I’m in serious problems at the moment.
So far I have been working myself against the target of 500 points, slowly but not rather safely. I have to multitable which haven’t been the issue either in my MTT’s games.
I started Friday evening, weren’t home Saturday and then again played Sunday evening, but that is also the big MTT day, so it had to be adjusted into the MTT I had to play also.
No doubt I have to speed up the game for the remaining 4 days, and where I until now have worked at NL20, and 5,50 $ SNG, I’m gonna have to take a step up the limits and go to NL50 and 11 $ SNG, Monday to see how many points I can get out of this.
So far I’m down 12,16 $, with a remaining 426 points, so maybe I’ll see you at the tables tonight CET.
