About the Spooky Scratch Race

To win this race, you need to play consistently. Every win, no matter how minute, earns you a “scratch.” These scratches, even as minor as 0.01 ACBL Masterpoints®, help you climb the spooky leaderboard. Every play, and every point, will take you one step closer to being the spooky leader. Finish first to win an iPad, and finish in the top 50 to take home some BB$. Five lucky players will also win BBO+ goodie bags.

How to join in

1. Log in to BBO, play games that reward ACBL masterpoints, from ACBL World or Instant Tournaments. 
2. Do your best to earn masterpoints. Every time you earn masterpoints, regardless of the amount (even as minor as 0.01), it counts as one “scratch.”
3. Every “scratch” you earn between October 28 to October 31 will be automatically tracked in the “Scratch Race”. The frequency of your wins, rather than the total masterpoints earned, will determine your position on the leaderboard.

ACBL membership is not required to play in these games (except for some games with masterpoint requirements).
