Good news, it was only Power Word Pain so. That was nice.

As a DM you should not be asking your players about their HP totals directly in order to target them with Power Words (or Sleep)
If it is to see whether it takes effect I think it is fine if it is to know whether or not to target them I completely agree that it is not fun or fair.
As a DM, I don't think you should be using Power Word Kill at all. "I've set up this awesome encounter that you're all going to love. Except you. You'll have to sit this one out."
