Pot committed

A player is Pot Committed when a huge portion of his stack is on the pot, where he has virtually no possibility of folding. The average amount to be committed depends on the amount of blinds you had in your stack when the hand started. Mathematically, folding will always be the wrong move because you always have giant odds to go/call all in in these situations.
