Default One of the stupidest things I've ever seen

During the hurricane, while displaced at my mom's house, I played some live poker.

If you don't know, Florida has a bet limit of $2, yes $2, in all games.

So, they spread straight $2 hold-em. $1/$2 blinds, every bet is $2.

Well, I went to a new room during the storm recovery and found something I didn't know existed. In order to create bigger pots (I guess) and to satisfy the gambler's the dog track poker room I was at spread:

ANTE HOLD 'EM.

$2 ante preflop by every player! So you're getting immediate odds of 10-1 UTG after the flop. I didn't get to watch much of the game and I didn't play in it. I suppose I could've made the adjustments but I was getting sucked out on enough in the str8 2 game.

Anybody ever seen anything like this?
