Squeeze Play: “The application of pressure in order to force compliance or gain an advantage.”
Squeeze Play – Poker Movie
A squeeze, or to put a squeeze on somebody, or a squeeze play, means to make a large raise after there has already been one raise and at least one call. Whereas the first player ideally folds, since he’s now caught between two or more opponents and doesn’t know what the players after him will do, the second player and all those after him often don’t have strong enough hands to call a reraise and so will fold.
