| Can anyone explain what "1/2 Kill Pots" are? I'm looking at a 4-8 Hold'Em game with a 1/2 Kill Pot and I'm not getting it. Please help. | ||

| There was recently a big discussion regarding Kill pot play. That was kind of high-level though, so I will give you a basic for the most common kill games: Commonly, in a Kill game, whenever one player wins two pots in a row that are a minimum on ten times the size of the small bet (so, in a 3/6 game, the two pots would have to be $30 or more each), then the very next hand doubles in stakes (becomes 6/12, in my example). The killer, has to post a live blind for the new stakes (in my example, $6). Now, you are actually asking about 1/2 kill. I've never played a 1/2 kill game, so I assume (correct me if I'm wrong) that the stakes go up by 1/2, instead of doubling. So if the game is 2/4, then the half-kill would make it 3/6. Hope this helps, and take a look back over the last week to find the thread on Kill strategy. It's a really good one. -Moz "May your chips never fall from a cow." | ||

| Moz, Thanks for the quick explain - I'll check for last weeks discussion. In the game I was watching was 4-8 and the"1/2 Kill" would bump it up to 6-12. So, it sounds like you where right on. Thanks again. --BW | ||
