Default 1/2 holdem, $20 ante

This would be an interesting game, i think. Limit holdem with a giant overante. The focus would be on value-betting/raising. Who's in?

As has just been pointed out, the ante makes it almost impossible to ever fold preflop, then it becomes correct to go right to the river with any pair or any draw. The focus on value-betting would be diminished by the fact that it would be a crapshoot.
