The American Cribbage Congress (ACC) and Game Colony have a wonderful relationship. The ACC is not a gaming site nor is the ACC in competition with Game Colony. In fact, the ACC holds its internet cribbage tournament program on Game Colony.
The American Cribbage Congress (ACC), established in 1980, is a non-profit organization dedicated to making the game of cribbage fun and fair for people of all ages.
To this end, the Congress sponsors over 150 sanctioned face-to-face tournaments a year through out North America.
A standardized rules and scoring system has been established with players earning points for their performances though out the season.
The ACC also has local Grass Roots clubs, that meet in small and large towns across the country each week. Players range in ages from as young as single digits to as old as triple digits! The camaraderie of our members is outstanding.
The ACC has an Internet Cribbage Tournament program, using Game Colony as the tournament site. Peggers from around the world
compete in the ACC Internet Cribbage Tournaments on Game Colony several times a week.
In addition to the tournaments, ACC members also receive a monthly magazine, Cribbage World, that keeps members in touch with what's going in the world of cribbage. Included are recaps of tournaments around the country, schedules and point standings as well as interesting stats and asides.
So if you're looking for somewhere to play cribbage, you've come to the right place. The ACC is the home of great cribbage!

Play cribbage tournaments online
At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
