Is there a specific reason why people sometimes make bets in oddball amounts? Such as raising a $20 blind to $87 or $94 rather than an even multiple of $20. Or do they just do that to be different?

Just curious if Im missing something here.

Some people do it to confuse other players or just because they like it.

There's no need to search any specific reason behind it.

I have read that some people like to do this to make it just that much more difficult to figure pot odds. It just makes their opponent waste a little more time asking this very question to themselves also.

It's mostly just to confuse people who let it.
