Ummm . . . This might sound dumb but what exactly are antes. Can someone explain to me what you do with antes in a poker game. Thanks.

Thanks, So you don't need to use antes.

There has to be some kind of forced bet, otherwise no one would play unless they had the very best starting hand possible.

I know, I would still do the blinds, but just no antes.

Correct. Hold 'em could be played with antes but its not the standard way.
