FAQ - Your questions about ACBL games schedule
Following the announcement of the new ACBL game schedule, please find the answers to your most common questions below:
If you want to play 18 boards or more, you have the option to play two 12-board games in a row.
We increased the frequency of our 12 board games so you can easily play two games in a row (and play more Masterpoints than what you normally would in an 18-board game).
Here are the 12-board games you can play:
- ACBL 12-board Open Pairs games, offering a slower pace (6 minutes per board) to accommodate players seeking shorter games without the pressure of speedballs' rapid pace of play. Entry fee: 2.29 BB$.
- ACBL Speedball Pairs (12 Boards), A shorter, slightly faster-paced pairs game. Each game wraps up in just under an hour, providing the perfect opportunity to double your play—and potentially your Masterpoints®—within the same timeframe typically reserved for one 18-board session. Entry fee: 2.29 BB$
- ACBL 0-499 and 0-1500 Pairs, 12 boards: Your favorite 0-499 and 0-1500 pair games get a makeover with 12 boards and 6 minutes per deal. Available every twice an hour, from early morning until late evening. Entry fee : 2.29 BB$
