Do CENTS matter?
do CENTS matter?
Hey, as long as I'm making confessions, I'd also like to confess that I lazily bet in increments of $1. ...Which, seeing as I'm loitering around the NL 25's these days, doesn't seem prudent. I'm essentially only betting 4xBB, 8xBB, 12xBB, etc... Is it worth the time/effort to type in ".85" instead of "1" for the sake of making a more precise/appropriate bet? Continued thanks for your thoughts, J Chap |

Re: Do CENTS matter?
at 25NL I play at 3 tables so I just have my finger by the 1 so I can just hit raise and move on to the next table. 4XBB is my standard raise at 25 and 50NL

Re: Do CENTS matter?
I actually type out the cents. But I'm incredibly anal. In the long run it doesn't matter.

Sometimes it feels weird to bet 1$ into 0.5$, but I'm usually too lazy to type 0.5 or 0.75 anyway... it does get better at higher stakes though as you probably know

Re: Do CENTS matter?
I type them in just because I want to bet $1.5 into a $1.5 pot or something..i don't want to bet $2 to win $1.5....remember that is 1bb at the 50 NL tables and if you are planning on folding to a raise or something that is 1 bb that you didn't have to lose.

Re: Do CENTS matter?
I just started playing NL25 on Stars, and my standard pre-flop raise is 4BB: $1 ... and all post-flop bets are rounded to the nearest $ too ... but then I'm in the habit of not using the slider - just banging in the bet with the keypad and hitting enter. Much more satisfying than using the mouse.
However, I add 50c to my raises for every pre-flop limper, so I'm not quite as bad as you. Can't see the point of bets like .55 or .85 though ... |

Re: Do CENTS matter?
you know what is fun though, is sometimes making it a weird number, like 0.76 cents, or betting 2.87 into a 3.00 pot. makes you think...
makes you think what is this idiot doing! |

Re: Do CENTS matter?
yeah, NH, everyone. nice family pot.
i should probably at least lower my threshold to .50 (still 2xBB). the main issue is that flop pot that's like $1 or $2. i think 1.50 is way more useful than 2. |
