1. When a poker player makes a risky marginal call solely based on a read or gut feel.

Explained 5i5s19

Often times in a poker game, a player will make a big call.

Example 3c1ox

Let's say you're playing a $50/100 NL river drops the 5c, you check, and your opponent bets $900, you then have to decide whether or not to make the hero call.

In this particular case, your opponent's small call, which means that your hand only needs to be good one in every five times (roughly) in order for it to be profitable. All things considered, and although you will be wrong more often than you're right, this seems like a good spot to make the hero call and look your opponent up with ace high.
