You need a few really bad players to make a no-ante game at such low limits profitable. Now, take that same 1-5 spread game and slap a .50 ante on there with the $1 bring in and you've got one of the most profitable games in the poker room on a bb/hr basis.

Since weak players tend to play too many hands and go too far with them, it doesn't make sense that a game with an ante would increase a strong player's win rate, since the weak opponents are playing closer to correct since there is more money in the pot to start.
