Default Pot sweeteners?

I'm not sure what the real name is for these types of plays - bets or raises that might win me the pot right their but are not likely to, but the plan is to start to bloat the pot when I am drawing to hand that is surely best.

I was hoping you guys could tell me how effective these plays are. Obviously they should be targeted against weaker players. I'll give a few different examples. Don't focus on the specifics of the actual hand just more the idea. If this is standard no limit stuff, my bad. Assume all have 100bb or 2k for 10/20.

Two weakish limpers. I raise 3x BB to 60 w/ 66. Chances of winning the pot right here are around 5%.

5 to the flop, I have position w/ Ac4c. Flop Qc 2s 3s. Bad player in the small blind bets 70 into a 100 dollar pot. All fold to me and I call. Turn Kc. He checks. I bet 125 and expect to win the pot like 15% of the time on this street but almost never expect to get check raised.

Pretty standard?
