The Mini-McKenney counts total masterpoints earned for the year and the Ace of Clubs counts only masterpoints earned at clubs as opposed to sectionals, regionals, and nationals. There are multiple brackets for each race based on the number of masterpoints a player has at the start of the year. Starting this year the ACBL split the former 1000-2500 and 2500-5000 brackets into two separate brackets.
