Something I've been experimenting with recently when on a draw and in EP is "buying" a card.. putting in a min bid - 2-4cents ..

Most players when they have a strong hand seem to be happy to let others do the betting for them and slow play to the river where they then try to make their money etc.. The small bets are often enough to keep people interested enough and to *not* bother reraising you and putting you on bad pot odds (and often keeps the draws much cheaper in general - while building a modest pot).

Has anyone else experimented with this - especially at these stakes (I know it's *highly* unlikely to work @ higher levels)
