So, here's my thought process:
In the 200/400 blind level with about 10 minutes left to go, there seems to always be a "mass exodus" of players. I was thinking that by adding "antes" it would either force a little more action pre-flop (making things go faster) or force the typical "mass exodus" players to rethink limping in every hand in the early rounds. Or, it would do both.
In the end, I definitely don't want to slow the tournament down. It already takes 5+ hours to complete.
All in all, I'm not even 100% sure why we're thinking of the change. To be honest, someone mentioned it at our last game and then everyone seemed to agree that we should have antes....
