Buy-in in a kill game
 

In my normal small stakes B&M limit game I'll buy in for 20-25 BB. Since 96.4% of the players are loose-passive, it handles nicely.

What should I do in a 4/8 game with a kill? I played in my first one (unknowingly) and had only $240 on me at the time. I bought in for my normal $160, then learned of the kill. I was never in danger, but I didn't feel like that was enough.
