No I didn't. There aren't a whole lot of sharks at the penny tables. Maybe a baby shark here and there, but a clever guppy can whoop a baby shark, so I'm not scared of sharks.
But I noticed there only seem to be 3 kinds of people at the penny tables. I'm in the first group which is; people who want to work their way up from the bottom and not take many if any risks. Second group is people who have built up a BR but decided the majority of the money would be better spent elsewhere(like one guy who was going to use points to get Christmas gifts for his kids but found out too late he couldn't get them in the UK), so they start over. And a third group that has me baffled, they ran into sharks! That's their story and they're sticking to it.
Last guy claims his BR was up to 9k and he sat heads up with a shark and lost all but a few bucks.
Now I wanna know. Are they really running into sharks? Or are they leaving something out?
I just don't understand how someone can work to get their BR up in the thousands of dollars and then lose it all to one player. It has me completely baffled. I'm a two rebuys kind of girl. Okay so if I'm really stubborn and convinced it's not me it's the table, 4 rebuys. But sooner or later I can put the brakes on.
Then again, maybe I'm answering my own questions. Maybe they're getting their BR's up so high, and maybe even quickly, by taking much bigger risks. So there's a double edged sword of the rewards being huge, and the losses are just equal to the rewards?
I dunno, I just don't get it.
