Message: [QUOTE="OzExorcist, post: 1215377, member: 23910"] I've seen a few people do it, seems to be a bunch of reasons behind it. Some are OCD, some do it when they've got a certain kind of hand. And I think some do it to disguise the kind of bet they're making - notice that Tom Dwan does it a lot playing live. Where others will bet $15,000 he'll bet $15,700 or $14,900 or something. I don't bet odd numbers, but I tend not to bet in exact multiples of the big blind either because it can make it really obvious what you're doing. I've seen players who'll make a raise preflop from late position and from the amount you know they're following the [I]"Raise 3BB plus 1BB for each limper"[/I] rule, which tells you something about their play. If you deviate from the exact amounts a little bit, your opponents don't get that extra information. Assuming they're paying attention in the first place. :p [/QUOTE]
