This mechanic requires you to place a bid, usually monetary, on items in an auction of goods in order to enhance your position in the game. These goods allow players future actions or improve a position. The auction consists of taking turns placing bids on a given item until one winner is established, allowing the winner to take control of the item being bid on. Usually there is a game rule that helps drop the price of the items being bid on if no players are interested in the item at its current price.
Auction/Bidding
Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management

Kramer's classic game of money management and racing is given a spiffy makeover by Restoration Games. The tracks on the double-sided board offer plenty of opportunities for blocking, the plastic cars are decent and the paper money of previous editions has been done away with painlessly. Gone too are the spurt/breakdown/switcheroo cards that added a degree of chaos. I am less keen on the betting on the outcome at three points in the race. It can be so lucrative that it seems to detract from the central business of buying a car as cheaply as possible and steering it to victory. Several of the races I have played have seen a runaway leader due to the betting giving several players a stake in the car out front.

Camel Up meets Formula D. Pretty enjoyable experience -- the betting mechanic goes so well with the racing and especially with moving multiple cars
