Controversial Button Ruling

During the first level, in the Stud games, an ante is impossible as there are no 5 denomination chips in play. Therefore, the button is having to ante for the entire table, and the button rotates during Stud games instead of staying stationary.

However, some tables are seven handed and some are eight handed at the moment, so since the games change every eight hands, one player ends up paying a bunch extra in antes. Several players are complaining about this, but the decision stands.
