Big bet (no-limit or pot-limit) poker frequently allows a player to
"kill the pot", by posting an amount equal to current to-go amount, and
the amount to-go (to come into the hand, or call preflop) is now double
the kill amount. In no-limit games, players are frequently allowed to
kill for more than the to-go amount, but for no more than 1/2 of their
stack. Some games allow overkills - after someone has killed the pot,
someone else can kill it again, raising the amount to-go to double the
new kill amount. There may be a limit to the number of kills allowed on
a hand, even though the game is "no-limit". Killing the pot alters the
order of action preflop/predraw. The killers act after the blinds in the
order in which they killed the pot. After the flop or draw, action
returns to its normal order.
To kill the pot in Hold'em or other flop games, the kill must be
announced (either verbally or by placing the amount of the kill in the
pot) before any cards are dealt. Draw lowball games frequently allow
players to kill the after seeing two cards - and some places even allow
a kill in lowball after the 3rd card is dealt. No-limit draw lowball
also frequently allows the player with the big blind to place a blind
which is larger than the normal amount, but still smaller than the to-go
amount, and the new to-go amount is twice the big blind.
Example: In a 1-2-2, 5-to-go Hold'em game, the player on the button (who
also has the $1 blind) decides to kill it for $5, rebuying his right to
act last before the flop. The blinds now look like 5-2-2, and the game
is now 10-to-go. After the player to the right of the button acts, the
two $2 blinds act, then the killer acts.
Example: In a draw-lowball game, 1-1-2 blinds, 4-to-go, the player with
the big blind puts out $3 before cards are dealt and it is now 6-to-go.
After two cards are dealt, the player to the right of the button kills
the pot for $10, and it is now 20-to-go. The player after the blinds is
first to act. After the player in front of the killer acts, the button
and other blinds must act, and then the killer acts.
Limit lowball games also frequently allow a player to kill the pot from
any position. In this case, the killer makes a blind of the current
limit, and the limit is doubled for that hand. As in no-limit games, the
player who kills the pot acts last after the blinds before the draw, and
action resumes to the normal order after the draw.
In addition, some limit games are played with a kill or a half kill. In
these games, there is some condition which if met, raises the stakes of
the game - doubling them in the case of a kill game, or increasing them
by 50% in the case of a half kill. In addition to the normal blinds
posted for the game, the player who met the kill condition must post a
blind equal to the new small bet size. This blind is instead of the
small or big blind if the player would have been in position to have one
of those. In some clubs the killer gets to act last after the blinds;
but in others the killer acts in normal turn order.
In a high only game, the condition is typically that someone wins two
pots in a row. In a high-low split game, the condition is usually that
someone takes the whole pot, and that the pot is some minimum size.
For example: in a 10-20 Omaha-8 game with a half kill that I've played
in, if someone scoops a pot with $100 in it, then they must post a $15
blind and the next hand the game is 15-30.
