The card that is held by the hand in Ante is Skull Servant.
The player who's hand is being shown is most likely the 'loser' of this card's effect, seeing as Skull Servant is a Level 1 monster. If he activated the card himself, he may be trying to send Skull Servant to the grave on purpose.
The 2nd Season with the Battle City tournament used a rule with this card's name in which a winner obtains the loser's rarest card.

Previously Official Rulings
If "Ante" is the only card in your hand, you cannot activate it.
If your opponent has no cards in his hand, you cannot activate "Ante".
You select cards at the resolution of "Ante"s effect, not at "Ante"s activation.
You cannot chain "Barrel Behind the Door" to "Ante" because you don't know for certain whether you will take damage.
If either player chains "Raigeki Break" or "Last Turn" to "Ante" and then has no cards at resolution of "Ante"s effect, "Ante"s effect disappears.
When "A Legendary Ocean" is active and you activate "Ante", when you check the Level, treat the Levels of WATER monsters in the hand as 1 lower for purposes of "Ante".
Barrel Behind the Door: You cannot activate "Barrel Behind the Door" against effects if you don't know for certain that they will inflict damage when the effect is activated. So you cannot activate it against"Ante"
