Baccrat has a 5-10 Pot Limit game, Yellowhead has a 10-20 on Friday, and a 15-30 on Saturday, both are busy so make sure to book a seat in advance.

Other than that, everthing is pretty much 3-6 kill, or 4-8 holdem-omaha, that I know of.

Have Fun

Theres also $100 Max Buy-In NL at Argyll every evening.
10/20 Hold'em on Saturdays and Sundays at Palace
Baccarat also runs 10/20 Omaha 8, 15/30 choice...they rotate those games along with 5/10 Pot throughout the week and that game starts in early afternoon and usually runs till late evening.

what does "kill" mean - as in $3/$6 "kill"??

a kill game is one in which whenever a player wins two hands in a row, the limit of the game doubles and the player that won the two hands is forced to post a big blind of that limit. the game stays at that limit until someone else wins a hand, the game then reverts back to the original limit

for example, if i win two hands in a row in the 3/6 kill game, the next hand after becomes a 6/12 game and I have to post a bling of $6 regardless of what position im in. the game remains 6/12 until i lose a hand, which then reverts the game back to 3/6
