1. Overcall

   In contract bridge, an overcall is a bid made after an opening bid has been made by an opponent; the term refers only to the first such bid. A direct overcall is such a bid made by the player seated immediately to the left of the opener, i.e. next in the bidding rotation; an overcall in the 'last seat', i.e. by the player to the right of opener, which is made after two intervening passes, is referred to as a balancing or protective overcall.

It indicates a willingness to bet more than the previous highest bid, typically suggesting a strong hand. Outside of card games, overcall can be used more broadly to refer to any situation where a person intervenes or surpasses a previous call, comment, or action.
