What Are Streaks?

Streaks reward you for playing poker on consecutive days in Hijack Poker.

The more days you maintain your streak, the more rewards you can unlock, including new avatars, avatar frames, and Streak Freezes.

To keep your streak active, you need to complete 2 qualifying flops each day.

Each day ends at 12:00 AM (midnight) Central Time (CT).

 

How to Keep Your Daily Streak

To count a day toward your streak:

  1. Open Hijack Poker and join a real-money cash game, Sit & Go, or tournament.

  2. Play until you've completed at least 2 qualifying flops during the day.

  3. Complete your daily requirement before 12:00 AM (midnight) CT.

What Counts as a Flop?

A flop is when the first three community cards are dealt face up in the middle of the poker table.

For your streak:

  • Seeing the flop counts, even if you fold afterward.

  • Winning a hand before the flop because all other players fold also counts.

  • Folding before the flop does not count.

  • Real-money cash games, Sit & Gos, and tournaments all count.

Example: If you see one flop in a cash game and another in a tournament on the same day, you've completed your daily streak requirement.

 

Streak Statuses and Rewards

As you maintain your streak, you'll reach new statuses that unlock avatar frames, avatars, and free Streak Freezes.

Status Consecutive Days Freezes Earned
Cowboy 7 days +1 free freeze
Grinder 30 days +1 free freeze
Marshal 90 days +1 free freeze
Baron 180 days +3 free freezes
Legend 365 days +3 free freezes

Each status unlocks new avatars that you can keep permanently, even if your streak ends.

Your current streak status is displayed through a frame around your avatar when the Show my streak frame option is enabled.

Legend Reward

Reaching 365 consecutive days unlocks Legend status and a custom avatar made just for you.

 

How Streak Freezes Work

A Streak Freeze protects your streak when you miss a day.

If you don't complete your daily requirement, an available freeze is automatically used to keep your streak active.

How to Get Streak Freezes

  • You receive 1 free freeze when you start your streak.

  • You earn additional free freezes when you reach new statuses.

  • You can purchase extra freezes for $2 each, using your Promo Balance or Cash Balance.

You can hold up to 3 purchased freezes at a time. Free freezes do not count toward this limit.

Important: Free freezes are used before purchased freezes.

What Happens If You Miss a Day?

  • If you have a freeze: One freeze is automatically used, and your streak is protected. However, the missed day does not increase your streak count.

  • If you don't have a freeze: Your streak ends, and your count resets to 0.

Avatars you've already unlocked remain available, even after your streak ends.

Note: An ended streak cannot currently be restored. Adding a freeze afterward only protects against future missed days.

How to Change Your Avatar

Streaks unlock new avatars and avatar frames as you reach higher statuses.

To view or change your avatar:

  1. Open Hijack Poker and go to Change Avatar.

  2. Browse the available avatars under each streak status.

  3. Select an unlocked avatar.

  4. Tap Confirm Avatar to save your selection.

Show My Streak Frame

In the Change Avatar screen, you'll find the Show my streak frame option.

  • On: Displays the frame associated with your current streak status around your avatar.

  • Off: Hides your streak frame.

Your unlocked avatars remain yours permanently, even if your streak ends.

However, your streak frame reflects your current streak status.

 

Streak Notifications

Streak notifications are currently available through the Hijack Poker mobile app.

You may receive:

  • 10:00 PM CT: A reminder if you haven't completed your daily flop requirement.

  • After midnight CT: A notification if a Streak Freeze was used to protect your streak.

You can enable or disable these notifications through your phone's notification settings.

Note: Streak notifications are not currently available through the web version.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Do I Need to Win Two Hands to Maintain My Streak?

No. You only need to complete 2 qualifying flops each day.

You don't need to win the hands. However, winning a hand before the flop because all other players fold also counts toward your daily requirement.

 

Do Tournament or Sit & Go Hands Count?

Yes! Flops from real-money cash games, Sit & Gos, and tournaments all count toward your daily streak requirement.

You can complete your 2-flop requirement by playing any combination of these eligible game types.

 

Does Winning a Hand Before the Flop Count?

Yes. If all other players fold before the flop and you win the hand, it counts toward your daily requirement.

 

What Happens If I Miss a Day?

If you have an available Streak Freeze, it will be used automatically to protect your streak.

Without a freeze, your streak ends and resets to 0.

 

Does a Streak Freeze Add Another Day to My Streak?

No. A freeze protects your existing streak but does not increase your streak count.

 

Can I Purchase Multiple Streak Freezes?

Yes. You can hold up to 3 purchased freezes at a time. Free freezes do not count toward this limit.

 

Will I Lose My Unlocked Avatars If My Streak Ends?

No. All avatars you've unlocked remain yours permanently.

Your streak frame, however, reflects your current streak status.

 

Can I Restore a Streak That Already Ended?

No. Ended streaks cannot currently be restored.

 

Why Hasn't My Streak Updated After Midnight?
