Default Re: Kill game?

The only kill game I've played involved the stakes doubling for the next hand if the same player won 2 consecutive pots (there was a minimum amount the pots had to be). If the player won again, the next pot would also be a kill pot and so on.

A kill game is just what the name says. It's a tournament, usually NLHE where you can kill someone for putting a bad beat on you. Also, since you get killed when your chips run out, it makes for great television. I believe there is a show on right now. Oh yes, there is. Apparently Phil Helmuth murdered some amateur for cracking his aces. He used a mace. Ewwww, there's hair and skull fragments all over it. I'm completely useless.

It doesn't have to be a tournament. They still play kill games near where I live and it is usually a 2-5 spread limit game that if the pot reaches $50 or more, it is known as a "kill" pot and the next round is no longer a 2-5 spread limit game but rather a 5-10 structured game. It can be a pretty good game because people want to play cheap at 2-5 but half the hands are kill pots which is deceptive and good players can win more $$
