Royal auction bridge is an earlier form of bridge, after auction bridge and before contract bridge. Its bidding and playing are exactly the same as the current contract bridge in the later form, but the scoring differs. In the 1920s, royal auction bridge essentially replaced the earlier form of auction bridge, and the term auction bridge was synonymous with royal auction bridge. Also, the rules of bidding were slightly adjusted to what ultimately became today's contract bridge. Starting from about 1929, contract bridge replaced royal auction bridge as the most popular form of bridge.

abstract	Royal auction bridge is an earlier form of bridge, after auction bridge and before contract bridge. Its bidding and playing are exactly the same as the current contract bridge in the later form, but the scoring differs. It was developed out of auction bridge in 1910s to address the defects of the scoring which favoured the red suits, by adding a new denomination called royal (alternately called lily), and changed the point counts for the other suits. It was called royal auction bridge to distinguish it from the earlier auction bridge with defective scoring, or alternately called the new count in reference to the modified point values of the denominations. In the 1920s, royal auction bridge essentially replaced the earlier form of auction bridge, and the term auction bridge was synonymous with royal auction bridge. Also, the rules of bidding were slightly adjusted to what ultimately became today's contract bridge. As the aim of auction bridge was to win the contract at the lowest level and make it, there were few treatments and almost no conventions in auction bridge. However, card play techniques were exactly the same as the current contract bridge. Starting from about 1929, contract bridge replaced royal auction bridge as the most popular form of bridge.
