Structure Sheet

Level 4:  Blinds 100/200/200 BB Ante
Entries: 144

Borgata Poker has implemented the “Big Blind Ante” for all No Limit Hold’em tournaments during this BPO series, with the exception of the SixMax (Event 14).

Instead of each player at the table anteing 25 and the dealer having to sort out who has posted and who hasn’t, and collect all the antes, making change where necessary, a single player in the big blind will post the antes for the table.  The amount of the Big Blind Ante is always the same amount as the Big Blind and the number of players at the table is irrelevant.  This simplifies the ante process immensely and keeps the game from slowing down once the antes kick in.

Now the player in the big blind will post 200 for the blind and another 200 for the table’s antes.  If the player in the big blind doesn’t have enough chips to cover both, his/her chips go toward the Big Blind first, then any chips remaining go toward the BB Ante.
