What is Middle Position in poker?

Roughly described as the positions between late position and early position on the poker table. Depending on the number of players at the table, Middle Position (MP) can vary. On a 6-person table, middle position is considered to be the player to the left of Under The Gun, also known as the Hijack (HJ). At an 8-handed table, middle position is refering to the two players to the right of CO and to the left of UTG+1, also known as the Lojack (LJ) and the Hijack (HJ).
