Flat call
Just calling a raise instead of re-raising, often to disguise hand strength.
In depth
A flat call in poker refers to calling a raise without re-raising. This strategic move is often employed to conceal the strength of one’s hand, as it avoids inflating the pot and allows the player to keep opponents guessing about their actual holding. By choosing a passive line, the flat caller can maintain weaker hands in the pot while obscuring their true range.
