Its just a comfortable way for me to pick up my chips and put them in the pot, period.

I remember the first time I played poker in a casino. I picked my hole cards off the table and up to my chest to look at them. The dealer told me I couldn't do that. My buddy showed me how to cup my hands over the cards and take a little peak so my opps couldn't see.
It was damn uncomfortable and I hated doing it. But after a couple of sessions it became 2nd nature and I couldn't imagine doing it any other way now.
Learn how to do it right. Grab a stack of chips in one hand and practice making neat piles of your bet with precision. You'll get more respect at the table.
