How it works

From sign-up to standings, in about 2 hours.

1
Round robin
Round-robin pods. You rotate partners each round and play everyone in your pod. Game to 11, win by 2.
2
Top finishers advance
Best records from each pod move on. Tiebreaks by point differential, then head-to-head.
3
Draft & bracket
Top finishers become captains and draft their partners from the rest of the field. Semis, then one final to crown the night's champion pair.
4
On the board · same night
Winner enters score, loser confirms. Results lock and every player’s record updates on the leaderboard.
What you play for

Real games and a spot on the board.

Every game counts
Logs to your record · climbs the leaderboard
Free to play. We set the format once we see who’s here, then play games that count. No buy-in, no pot — every game logs to your record and moves you up the leaderboard. Competitive and structured, never cutthroat.
Who can play

Open to all — 3.5+ plays best.

Open play · 3.5+ suggested
Anyone can RSVP — it’s an open room that records every game. We suggest 3.5+, but that’s a soft signal of who the night plays best for, never a wall at the door. RSVP, show up, play.
Have a DUPR rating? Add it when you RSVP and we’ll match you into closer games. No DUPR? Self-rate — it just helps us group the night.
