Excerpt from Royal Auction Bridge: Up to Date

A revised count at Auction has come into vogue, and I have endeavored in this new edition, to give a description of the game as it is played today. Under this new count, holding a good Spade suit with top Honors you declare Royals and not "two Spades" as formerly.

The new count does not alter the principles of the game of Auction, but the score is materially changed. The advantage of Royals over the old count is, that good dark suits are not wasted, but are bid up and competition is made more lively. The suit values are but one point apart.
