Closing the action (poker)

Also: Close the action

Poker term

When your call ends the betting round.

If no one behind you has yet to act, you don't have to worry about a raise after you call. Example. A BTN opens to 2.5bb, the SB folds, and the BB calls: the preflop action ends there. A call with players still behind is worth less because you can be squeezed.
