Poker Term of the Week

This week’s term is calling the clock which means forcing a players who is taking too long to act to act in a specified amount of time. Oftentimes this is seen as poor etiquette; however, in some cases when dealing with a slow player, calling the clock may be necessary.

If the player fails to act within the specified time, then his/her hand will be ruled dead.
