Dear all

Can someone advise me on how strata and sections are determined in NABC. I was very surprised to find that I was not in B or C strata in yesterday's practice. Is it based on ACBL masterpoints. How is it possible that I could only be in A strata - it was quite surprise to me. Has everyone in a section played the same tables - although I dont think thats possible based on the travellers. Obviously I'm not familiar with how big tourneys work so apologies for the question

I wasnt expecting to have to perform at that level quite yet :)

regards P

The NABC tournament uses ACBL masterpoints, A = 2000+, B=500-2000, C=0-500. However, everyone from outside ACBL territory (US, Canada, Mexico, Bermuda) is automatically put into A. So you're in A because you're from Australia.
