General Big Blind Ante Tournament Rules
Ante is posted by the player in the Big Blind ONLY. Ante is posted PRIOR to Big Blind.
In the event that the player in the Big Blind has less than the required amount to post both the Big Blind and the Ante, the Big Blind will be posted first. The ante will then be posted with any remaining chips.
When the final table reaches four-handed play, the Ante amount will be reduced to the equivalent of the small blind. Once heads up, the ante will be removed.
All late entries will be sold a full stack. Play will continue until a winner has been declared. The final table will be 10 handed, TDA Rules apply.
