What is a big blind ante?
The poker world has moved to a big blind ante as opposed to a regular ante for late tournament structure. This means the big blind pays the ante for the entire table. Basically, this results in the BB paying the same amount as a BB as an ante. The ante is immediately a part of the pot while the BB remains in action with standard BB options. While this may seem counterintuitive, it makes the game run smoother and has almost no little impact on the game itself.
