Explanation of Ante
- Ante = Level, With 3 Blinds.
- Blind = Single “Fight”, also Called a Round.
Those are poker term, the ante is an obligatory bet for each hand that will usually increase over time during a tournament (some have it at 0 at the beginning).
The blind is an amount of money that 2 players at the table are forced to bet before receiving their hands, there are the small blind and the big blind (the big blind is always twice the small). This is to ensure that every hand gets played a minimum to avoid money not moving between players, which in a tpurnament could cause delays etc. It also make the game a bit more interesting overall by forcing some players to make a move with hands they would normally not have played.
The game could use a lexicon for people unfamiliar with poker terms I do agree, the game is good enough that it should transcend the sphere of poker afficionados.
