What does \"kill\" mean
When a B&M offers 4/8 LHE with 1/2 kill, what does the kill mean?

Re: What does \"kill\" mean
if the pot reaches a certain size and its scooped by one player, the player would have to post $6 in front and the game would be 6/12... a full kill would be 8/16$

Re: What does \"kill\" mean
I've played 4-8 in Vegas where there was a 1/2 kill after 2 consecutive wins - very lame and rarely happens.
I've also played the 5-10 at Foxwoods where there is a full kill after a previous pot reaches $100. Lots of wild swings, luck plays a larger factor in your potential win. Any other casinos offering kill games? |

Re: What does \"kill\" mean
Just to be clear. There are two kinds of kills. Both double the stakes. In Type #1, the stakes double on the next hand if the current pot was >$X and was not chopped. In Type #2, the stakes double when the same player wins two pots in a row. In type #2 kills, the winner receives with his first pot, a small disk that says "leg up", and if he wins again, the disk is flipped over so it says "killer".

Vegas plays mostly 1/2 kill in the 4-8 game, so the game goes to 6-12, not 8-16.

The cardroom has a popular round-and-round Hold'em and Omaha/8 game with a 1/2 kill. The kill works the same in both games. Anytime they spread a straight hold'em game with a kill, it is also #1. |

Re: What does \"kill\" mean
I play 3/6 a lot at Casino AZ and there you have to win 2 pots in a row with the 2nd of the 2 being >30$ for it to be a kill. At CasinoAZ all 3/6 tables are played with a full kill.
