When an adult tries to influence a child's behavior by telling them that Santa Claus is watching.
The kids I was babysitting were so incorrigible I had to play the Santa card.
To get or keep a distinterested guy interested in a relationship, a girl will tell tales of being bi, hot bi hook-ups and allude to him participating in possible threesomes with her bi friend, but the tales are mostly false.
Girl #1: Joel is losing interest in me. I caught him texting some other chick.
Girl #2: Did you play the bi card yet?
Girl #1: No, but I will. Can I name you as my bi girlfriend?
Girl #2: Yeah, what are friends for?

Similar to playing the black card, playing the woman card, playing the disabled card, et cetera.
When someone exploits positive discrimination to get their way, and points to a personal trait of theres as a fault which somehow justifies their actions or inability to do something they'd ordinarily be expected to do.
Also used to guilt trip people into taking back something they've said on the grounds of them being insensitive.
Usually just enforces negative stereotypes and is extremely detrimental to the cases of most gay people simply wanting to be treated like normal human beings.
"Muuumm, I can't take the garbage out - I'm gay, remember?"
"Oh, sorry son. I'll do it. Thanks for playing the gay card! I nearly forgot that I'm supposed to treat you like an imbecile for something totally irrelivant to your physical and mental capacity."
"What the fuck are you on about, boy?"
"That really hurts my feelings. I have special needs! It's not easy growing up gay, you know?"
"Erh, don't play the gay card you stupid brat."
"What the hell did you do that for? You just killed 40,000 people!"
"I'm gay! How could I know any better? It's your fault, you straight people have made me unknowledgable through your discrimination."

to say that you "misspoke" something, to get off easy for saying something stupid, false, or offensive.
example of how to play the misspoke card.
"edited for dramatic effect"
Sarah Palin:North Korea is our ally.
Glenn Beck:South Korea...
Palin later on:I misspoke.
When one user questions or attacks another user, and the 2nd instantly accuses them of being a "troll". Often the first resort of those on shaky ground.
PD: "I don't think Asians should date Blacks."
Goldwing: "That's because you're a dumb racist."
PD: "Troll alert!"
Count X: "Man, don't even play the troll card, you racist shitbag."
Entertainers in the public eye, who increasly advertise their particular sexual orientation in public, the more popular they become, are "Playing the gay card."
John Barrymore, who formally was not widely known as a homosexual now uses many opportunities to advertise the fact. He is often "playing the gay card."
Such people and there are many, must have previously believed that their sexual orientation may have been a hinderance in their careers. In reality, it hardly makes any difference to the general public who aren't that bothered. But continual reference to it gets boring.

When a woman manipulates a man by making him think she’s the only woman in his life who thinks highly of him.
She playing the queen card by telling him is mom and aunts said he’ll never change . Now, he sees her as his number one supporter over the other women in his life .
