English term or phrase: Card squeezing
Vad heter detta uttryck på svenska? Det förekommer i kortspelen bridge och i detta fall poker. Här är Wikipedias definition:

Squeeze play (or simply squeeze) is a play in contract bridge that often occurs late in the game and involves the play of a card (often, but not necessarily, a winner) which forces an opponent to discard a vital card from his hand, thus giving up a trick (or two in some cases). The discarded card can be either a winner or any card that solidifies defender's defensive position.
