Hi guys,
today a question for online poker.
when I raise I mostly do it in a value of x big blinds, so the value is most of the time very even.
But sometimes I see some players who raise to absolute like random numbers, not in sense of the overall value, but to numbers like 1392. Is there a taktik or sth. behind that?
If you see the stack of the raise you first think the player is gone all in because of this number.

It's totally a style preference for players to raise to uneven numbers. For me, I normally end my bets in a 7, just because it forces my opponent to think about my bet, even if just for a second more, and may cause them to overthink it. However, it really doesn't make much of a difference. It's just a style thing for me.

I liked watching Phil Lock on TV raise weird amounts.
