(select id from owner where date_format(auction_date,'%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00') = date_format(NOW(),'%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00')) as a
left join (select owner_id,max(nb) as maxbid from auction group by owner_id) as b on a.id=b.owner_id
left join (select owner_id,max(mb) as maxautobid from auction group by owner_id) as c on a.id=c.owner_id
For the second left join statement, i'm able to get the highest mb value. Can someone help me add a third left join statement so that i can get the second highest mb value??

First, you don't need a third join at all. You can do your calculation in one join:
from (select id
from owner
where date_format(auction_date,'%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00') = date_format(NOW(),'%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00')
) as a left join
(select owner_id, max(nb) as maxbid, max(mb) as maxautobi
from auction
group by owner_id
) b
on a.id=b.owner_id;
Getting the second largest value for mb then uses a trick, involving substring_index() and group_concat():
from (select id
from owner
where date_format(auction_date,'%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00') = date_format(NOW(),'%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:00')
) as a left join
(select owner_id, max(nb) as maxbid, max(mb) as maxautobi,
substring_index(substring_index(group_concat(mb order by mb desc), ',', 2), ',', -1
) as second_mb
from auction
group by owner_id
) b
on a.id=b.owner_id;
The idea is to concatenate the values together, ordering by mb. Then take the second element of the list. The one downside is that the value is converted to a character string, even when it starts as a number.
