Message: [QUOTE="lilpotato, post: 4126763, member: 148113"] Anyone that actually plays poker, knows that other than needless tanking antes are the biggest slow down to play in tournaments. The dealer is constantly reminding players to ante every hand, people arguing about which player put ante in and which player did not, dealer recounting antes etc. it is annoying and takes time out of every level when antes are collected. That is why the trend in tournament poker is toward a button ante (where the player who has the button ante's for the whole table). Blind to ante ratio is a big part of tournament strategy and any talk of eliminating blinds in tournaments I find pretty laughable. [/QUOTE]
