Big Blind Ante Format for MTT Simulator?

Hi All,

I was just curious if there was a big blind ante option when setting up an MTT in the simulator. Many live tournament events in my area have adopted the format and I would like to practice my approach using it. If there isn't this option available is it possible to get it added sometime in the near future? Thanks in advance.

    Yes, we have been discussing for awhile this addition and big blind antes will come to APT in near future. We were somewhat waiting to see how the general accepted use fell out: many live rooms are doing it slightly differently: some the BB ante is a full big blind, some a fraction, some revert to individual anets at final table, etct.

    We actually have a team meeting tomorrow and I can see what the prospective programming timeline would be. But we totally agree: big blind ante is here to stay and APT tournament simulator needs to reflect that.
