No. There are some games that antes are the only source of income for casinos in Oklahoma. The profits from the game go into a players pool. That pool is used to give back those profits to the players through promotions. Often the promotion pays the ante. I haven't checked lately but there was an early surrender game dealt that has an off the top player edge at one casino less the ante. If the ante was paid out of the players pool a BS player had an off the top advantage.
