English term or phrase: forfeit the ante

Trading Is Like Poker...
Investing is like poker. You should only play the good hands, and drop out of the poor hands, ###forfeiting the ante###.
One of the most underrated metrics people fail to look at on their statements is their Avg Winner vs Avg Loser. Using the quote above can really help us understand why it’s important to be good at losing and to take our losses when they are small before they turn into huge losses. The majority of peoples’ statements probably have just a few trades that went wrong and ended up blowing up their accounts.

此外，play the good hands, and drop out of the poor hands也不知如何表达才通顺。
Thanks!

拿走筹码；赢得筹码

Explanation:
我的理解正相反：通过打出好牌，扔掉差牌而赢得筹码，也就是说，forfeiting the ante是同时说明前面两个动作：play the good hands和 drop out of the poor hands的
6. ( tr ) law
a. to confiscate as punishment
play the good hands, and drop out of the poor hands是打出好牌，扔掉不好的牌
