No, not really. The antes don't go to the house, they go to whomever wins the pot.

See, this is why I have always loathed math. First, you included the antes in the cost of playing per 100 hands. You also included the bi. But, if this is a cost, you pay it and don't get it back. Now you say we are getting it back when we win a hand. All we have to do is average a 1 in 8 win rate. Unless on a short table, then we have to average a better win rate.

So then, we have to average 1 win per rotation(to get antes and bi) and when we win, we have to win 2bbs to make up for antes, bis and rake. If we win this much this often, we break even and are playing cash games for free. In itself, a great deal of work.

But not as much work as thinking about this.
