I used to play that game pretty often. I think that kill structure (particularly the fact that it is based on pot size) creates some interesting situations. As an example, if I am on the button and have a drawing hand that is borderline between raising and calling behind several limpers, I would be much more inclined to raise in that game than in a game with no kill. The raise is about neutral EV-wise, but it will vastly increase the chance that the next hand--where I will still be in late position--will played at double stakes. Making the games higher stakes more often when you are in late position is good for you and is a good way to ease into getting comfortable playing $10/20.
