EN: The act of catching
The move you make when your friend throws your phone back to you and your life flashes before your eyes. It's that split-second decision between a heroic catch and a cracked screen. Also applicable to catching feelings, but that's a different, more dangerous sport.
Often used interchangeably with 'pagsalo'. 'Pagsambot' can sometimes imply a more sudden or reflexive catch.
