I've been watching some people playing on TV and I noticed that a lot of them bet close enough to standard amounts, but with slight very variations. For example, in a pot of 10k, somebody will bet 5.2k. This is, essentially, just a 1/2 bet, but why throw in the extra 200? It goes in the other direction, too (putting in 4.8k). Why do players do this? What you're essentially making is a 1/2 pot bet, so I can't imagine it's to throw other players off.
It would make sense if they were just rounding: betting 5k as a single chip on a 9k pot instead of the 1/2 exactly which is 4.5k - but this isn't the case usually.
Is this something I should start implementing in my games?
