The Amazing Race Pool
Pick your team. Call the finish.
A fantasy league for The Amazing Race. Back one team for the whole race and, every leg, call who is first to the mat and who is going home. Your team earns podium points on non-final legs — first, second and third — plus every leg it survives, more the longer you have backed it. Placements are the official ones after penalties, never the arrival order on screen.

The complete guide
How a The Amazing Race Pool works.
A The Amazing Race pool is the simplest way to watch a season with your family, your office or your group chat and have something riding on every leg.
The one decision: your team
Back the team you think wins. You cannot drop them while they are in, so the points reward conviction: +1 for the first leg they survive, +2 for the second, up to +5 every leg after that. If they win, you get +20 and a loyalty bonus of +2 for every leg you backed them, up to +20 more.
The calls you make every leg
| Call | What it asks |
|---|---|
| First to the Mat | Officially first on the leg — +5 |
| Going Home | Any competitive elimination in the window — +8 |
| Who wins the race? (finale) | +8 |
How the points add up
| Event | Points |
|---|---|
| Your team survives a leg | +1, +2, +3, +4, then +5 — non-elimination legs count |
| First / second / third on a non-final leg | +5 / +3 / +1 (one placement, not stacked) |
| Qualifies for the final leg | +10 once |
| Wins the race | +20 plus up to +20 loyalty |
| Eliminated | −5 |
These are the defaults. A commissioner can change any value before the first picks lock.

The edge cases, decided in advance
- A time penalty drops a team: the official placement after the penalty is what scores.
- A split-route leg with two rankings: podium points within each group, and First to the Mat is void — there was no single first place.
- Last but saved: survival, no penalty, and not a Going Home.
- A leg across two episodes: one leg, scored once.
FAQ
The Amazing Race Pool, answered.
How does a The Amazing Race pool work?+
Everyone backs one team for the season — the same team can be backed by any number of people — and makes fresh calls before every leg. Your team earns points as the season goes; your calls earn points when they come true. The leaderboard adds both.
Who enters the results?+
We do. ChooseASquare publishes each leg’s results once, and every pool following the season scores itself within moments. You never type a result. Spotted a mistake? Tell us and we correct it — every pool re-scores, and nobody’s pick history changes.
What if my team goes out?+
You pick a replacement for the next leg that has not locked. Points you already earned stay; the replacement’s loyalty starts again at +1. You cannot swap a team who is still in — that is the whole game.
What about spoilers?+
Turn on the spoiler shield and the pool hides every result you have not revealed yet — standings, who is out, even your own team’s fate — until you tap to reveal it. Reminders tell you when your calls lock and never what happened.
Can we play for money?+
Reality pools do not collect entry fees through ChooseASquare yet. Run it for bragging rights, or settle any side pot between yourselves — the leaderboard is the record.
What does it cost?+
A Reality Pass is per season, priced on how many people play: $9 for up to 10, $19 for 25, $29 for 50 and up from there. Reality is included on Pro Commissioner and Organization with no pass needed.
Can I join after the season has started?+
A pool takes new entries until its first picks lock. Start one before the next leg airs and it plays from there — nobody earns points for legs the pool did not play.
Is ChooseASquare affiliated with the show?+
No. ChooseASquare is an independent pool platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to The Amazing Race, its producers or its network.
Run a Survivor, Traitors, Big Brother, DWTS, Amazing Race, Million Dollar Secret or Bake Off pool: everyone backs a champion and calls every episode, we enter the results, and every pool scores itself. Setup, scoring, replacements, the spo…
