Pot committed
What it means
A situation where what's already in the pot, compared with what you have left, lowers the price of the all-in so much that folding loses with almost any hand that has something. It doesn't mean calling everything: it means the all-in math gets done before you put in the last small bet.
Example
In the 4-bet pot you call a c-bet of 16: the pot becomes 80.5 and you have 60 left. If your opponent goes all-in on the turn, you need 29.9%. That's why calling the flop at SPR 1.6 is almost deciding the all-in already: with unpaired A♠Q♣ on 8-6-3 (25.6%) you fold earlier.
