Kill games on ultimate bet

[PJM1206]

Some how it would seem that you would want better odds on your draws. It would seem to me that drawing hands more likely lead to the kill so.... If you have to pay a Kill Blind you are taking $$$ out of your draws. I am not sure how to adjust the pot odds for the reduced winnings but it would seem you should

I wouldn't worry about it too much...this matters by at most a fraction of a BB since you'll sometimes win your kill blind back after posting it (how often depends on frequency of raised pots and how badly/passively the opposition plays after the flop). The only time I might fold based on this property is if I have a draw that isn't getting immediate odds but would normally be justifiable by implied odds (i.e. calling the turn with a gutshot getting 9-to-1 multiway)

If I've got the kill button, I basically knock 2/3 of the kill post out of the size of the current pot when calculating odds. Particularly something like a borderline river value bet when a call will push the pot into the kill zone.
