simple question(s) re: kill

[Hootie McBoob]

let me cut to the chase: what is it? what does it mean when they say $100 kill or $65 kill? no more betting? if that is the case it seems counter-intuitive since casinos want as much money on the table (not only for the rake, which i realize is capped, but also to attract players). why have "kills"? help?

Refer to Easy E's summary of kills:

So a $100 kill is a kill that is triggered when the pot exceeds $100.

thanks wingnut. so it's kind of like a "burn" but the stakes go up either a half bet or full bet. that makes sense. now i have one more question: why are they called "kills"?
