Playing with 125 buy-ins as a casual gives you the opportunity to do completely stupid things, often to amusing results. Like this.
I can't shake the thought that a 1/3 of pot bet on the river in seemingly hopeless situations can be good to steal from opponents who too often give up with marginal holdings on scary boards.
Obviously when I'm only betting 10 cents it's the equivalent of a check, except that it's not when villain doesn't decide to call (which is insanely more often than you'd think)
It's of course, completely vulnerable to anyone with half a brain.
