Excerpt from Royal Auction Bridge: A Complete Guide to the Conventions of the Game for the Beginner and the Advanced Player With Full Instructions for Declaring and Playing Nullos The Nullo call is only an additional declaration let this be distinctly understood. It does not make any radical change necessary in the conventions Of declaring, as Royal Spades did. It is possible to go from a table at Which the new bid is played to another table at which it is not played without men tal disturbance. NO fresh problems are presented to the mind - the game remains unchanged. This is a crowning merit, because none of the inconvenience that is usually experienced in the period Of transition from the Old era to the new will be felt when Nullos are universally adopted. I have to acknowledge the great help my brother, Mr. J. A. Robertson, has given me in writing this book, and especially in collecting test-hands from actual play. The credit Of having invented the minus-four rule, so useful to the partners in play ing against a Nullo, is due to him.
