Earn 5 points on 3 different days for a 2,000 starting stack in the £5,000 Freeroll.

    If you are not familiar with how to earn points in SNG's, it's really simple, especially compared to cash games.

    For every £ in Reg Fees (NOT Entry fees) you earn 10 points.
     
    So, a £5.50 SNG or DYM earns you 5 points - & that is all you need to qualify for a 5 point day.

    2 x £3.30 SNG's or DYM's would suffice, too, or a £3.30 + a £2.20 or £2.25 would do.

    I'm not sure about this, but I THINK players get 3 points for a £2.25 DYM, too, if so, 2 of those gets the job done.
     
    Remember, earning 5 points on all 7 days gets you a 10,000 starting stack in the £5,000 Freeroll on Saturday 27th February. 

    In short, a fiver a day is all it takes.
     
    Any questions, fire away.

    Tikay, there is an error in the top post on this thread,

    It says

    "Earn 5 points on 3 different days for a 10,000 starting stack in the £5,000 Freeroll."


    It should of course say "7 different days"

    Ooh, good spot Barny, thank you, I've edited it now.

    I C & P'd line 1, then changed the numbers to suit. Except I forgot to change one of them.

    Yes, technically it's half a point for 5p rake rounded up to 1 point.

    Guys, I will pass the thread up to the office in the morning if there are queries, or you can speak to CC.

    The freeroll is not until the weekend, so we have plenty of time to sort any questions.

    Have a good evening.
