ACBL Masterpoints®
My Current Rank

I have earned 529.62 ACBL Masterpoints® as of July 16, 2023. While those of my points which are pigmented Silver and above are sufficient to qualify for Silver Life Master, my current total points only qualify for Bronze Life Master.

The following table shows minimum ACBL Masterpoint® requirements for various ranks which are based on the old “grandfathered” ACBL requirements for ACBL members who joined prior to January 1, 2010. Among other exceptions, a Member who became a Life Master prior to January 1, 1990, is exempt from the pigmented point requirements for all ranks above basic Life Master. I joined in May 8, 2008 which is prior to 2010, but I obviously did not become a Life Master prior to January 1, 1990. Thus the masterpoint pigmented requirements below govern my rank advancement. While OnLine (unpigmented) points can now count towards a rank requirement, total OnLine points required for any rank can only include a maximum of one-third such points as shown by the blue ≤ numbers below. The symbol ‘>’ indicates that this combined total number of points is required of this or higher pigmentation for this rank.
