But when you add an ante things change. Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe any online cash games have an ante. If so this is a pretty big factor. A bigger factor, I think, then ultra deep stacks or the ability to fold big hands. The world's best non ante player is playing a significantly different game if a big ante is added and would therefore indeed have trouble cracking the top twenty in an ante game. Which is how those big live games are normally played.

can you expand on what the "significantly different game" relates to? expanding opening ranges? 3-betting pre-flop more? looking to trap more/less often? what??

i'd guess that you believe you know the difference, what is it?
