Card blunder from Kentish beauty queen, we gather (7)
I believe the answer is:
misdeal
'gather' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for misdeal that I've seen before include "Faulty distribution" , "Wrongly issue" , "Give out the cards wrongly" , "Right hand that isn't" , "Give out cards incorrectly" .)
