that would normally be my line, chard, but against nits who might check back a lot I think leading is good.
don't want to really derail but wanted to clarify this. probably no one else cares but I'm interested in poker language usage.
Call is obviously well-known and the most universal, comprehensive term. But in common usage we break down calls various ways:
1. To "peel" is to call a bet on the flop from a preflop raiser, generally when we have medium-strength, SD value hand and aren't sure the PFR has a hand yet. I.e., "UTG raises, we call on button with 88, flop is 972r, he bets, we peel one."
2. "Float" - We are facing a bet from PFR or a donk in position. We can either have a draw or air or marginal SDV but floating implies we intend to take it away from them on a later street. "Loose CO opens, I call on BTN with JTs. Flop is 972r, he bets. He has a high c-bet frequency but low double-barrel frequency, so I float with my gutshot and overs."
3. "Flat" generally refers to preflop action when we are facing a raise and it's a spot where we could very well 3-bet but instead, we flat. "Nit opens UTG, I flat JJ in MP."
