Default Re: Structure for a .25/.50 home game...

[ QUOTE ]
Sounds like it is all stud games?

Sorry, I was just quoting the 7-card stud related games for which I'm concerned about having the proper ante/bring-in. We'll also have Texas Hold'em (limit and no-limit), Omaha, Pineapple, Guts, Anaconda, Draw, all that stuff.

I think .5 ante and .10 bring in is pretty good, it makes it a fairly loosely structured game but I assume you guys are playing for fun and not to just steal each other's antes.

In my newbieness I'm not entirely sure what the "not to just steal each other's antes" means. Is a low ante more prone to being stolen (because 'why bother paying a quarter to protect a nickel?')?

I play the .50/1.00 on Party with .25 ante and .25 bring-in, and that seems to be more of a crapshoot than a skill game.
