$2500 NL hand vs. Vinny Vinh at the Borgata Open

[curtains]

Looks normal to me, although what is the hijack? I assume its the seat before the cutoff, as nothing else makes any sense, yet I've never heard the term.

Rarely used term but it is the seat before the CO.

Why use a rarely used term that a lot of people may not understand when you are asking an opinion on a hand?

It's not THAT rarely used. Frankly, I'm surprised a player of your stature has never heard it. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I guess I don't get out enough.

[zambonidrivr]

why complain constantly?

hijack as a term sucks. it's not incredibly rarely used, but the people who are trying to make it more used suck. as human beings i mean they suck. this term is useless, as co+1 is even a shorter thing to type than "hijack." it not only is less well known, but well, it's less well known AND there was a perfectly good way to describe that seat before people started calling it the hijack.

i think that the point is people thought cutoff sounded cool, and well now there should be a name for other seats where you take action often. since the most frequent action seats are the late position and blinds, the next up after blinds button and cutoff was "the hijack." personally i think the world would be better off if people continued to call it co+1 or btn+2 or "2 off the button" or whathaveyou. hijack will forever seem to me to be the "man i so desperately wish i was one of the cool kids" type of words.

oh well.
