Snap Call Poker
Get ready for a fast and furious game! Snap is all about mental reaction time, and one of the few games in which luck plays no part at all. To play Snap, you need the following:
Two or more players. There is no formal upper limit, but if you play with more than six players, the neighbors may complain about the noise.
A standard deck of 52 cards. Play Snap with a single deck of cards if you have fewer than four players; add a second deck if more players compete. Playing this game with a used deck is a good idea — the cards can take a beating (literally).
You don’t need a full deck of cards — a card or two can be missing from the deck. You can also play Snap with special cards designed for another game (such as an Old Maid deck), as long as most of the cards have backs identical to other cards in the deck.
Was so surprised to lose this pot and had to go back to hand history to double check. Wondering if this is a leak and I need to slow down and think more or if this is just a snap call.

Snap Call Poker คือ
The dealer deals out the whole deck of cards face-down, one card at a time to each player, in a clockwise rotation. It doesn’t matter if some players get more cards than others. What does matter, however, is that you don’t look at the cards you get.
- RELATED TERMS: Call, Crying Call, Represent, Sandbag, Slowplay. A call made when a player would typically have been expected to raise or reraise. EXAMPLE: 'There was a raise and two calls. I figured the two callers didn't have anything, but found out on the showdown that the second player just made the smooth call to disguise the hand.'
- In poker, a 'snap call' occurs when a player calls an all-in bet without thinking for even a second. In most cases, one of three things has happened: 1) The player 'snap calling' has the nuts 2) The player 'snap calling' has a great read on the player betting.
Each player, starting with the player to the left of the dealer, takes a turn flipping over the top card of his pile and putting it face-up in front of him. After a few turns, each player has a little pile of face-up cards.
When you turn over all the cards into the pile in front of you, you pick up the pile and use it again without shuffling them.
The flipping process continues until one player turns over a card of the same rank as the top card on another player’s pile. As soon as the matching card is revealed, the first person to call out “Snap!” takes the two piles with matching cards and puts them face down under his own pile.
Frequently, two players make the Snap call simultaneously. In this case, you put the two piles with the same card together, face-up, in middle of the table. Everyone continues to turn over the top cards on their piles until someone turns over a card that matches the card on the pile in the middle of the table. The first person to shout “Snap pool!” wins the middle pile. The new piles that are being created are still up for grabs in the usual way, of course. Whenever a pairing is created, the first to shout “Snap” wins them.
When a player mistakenly calls out “Snap!” her pile goes into the center of the table; the first player to call “Snap pool!” at the relevant moment gets her pile. You have to operate with what you have left, and if you run out of cards, you are out of the game.
The player who ends up with all the cards wins the game.
For some reason, Snap brings out the worst competitive instincts in people. Establishing several informal rules can avoid Snap-induced bloodshed:
Set rules about the proper way to turn over your card. You can’t turn over the card so that you see it first, which means that you must flip over the card in a continuous, fast motion onto your pile.
Get an impartial witness to decide on all close calls. If you can, choose someone who isn’t playing the game.
A devious, cunning player remembers the order of her pile (or of another player’s pile) when the pile gets small so she gains a big edge in the calling. Keep an eye on the cards as the game draws to a close; if you don’t, you put yourself at a disadvantage. If you want to avoid this situation, you can agree to shuffle your pile when you’ve worked your way through it.
