Odd betting amounts: Betting an odd dollar amount can require the use of several different colors of chips. Darren says he thinks people use this trick to make their bets appear bigger.

Actually, that's usually the result of using the slider in big bet games instead of typing in the amount.

This is incorrect. On every site i have ever PL or NL on,(like 4..), they use $5 increments minimum for bigger sized games. It is DEFINITELY a function of typing in a #. I do believe there is somehting to the "more chips" theory tho, but not much. I don't think it makes people fold more, but if fish think it does, fine by me. As said by OP, I always look at the #, not the stack.
