The middle position in poker is one of the three main groups of poker table positions, standing between early and late positions. Depending on the game format, it can include a varying number of seats but is always seated after the Under The Gun player.
Middle Position Poker Example:
When playing a standard nine-handed poker game, the players in the middle position are those in the MP 1, MP 2 (Lojack), and MP 3 (Hijack) seats. On the other hand, in a 6-max poker game, only the player in the Middle Position/Hijack seat is considered to be in the middle position.
