I believe the answer is:

throw

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'chuck' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'cover over furniture' is the second definition.
'throw' can be an answer for 'cover' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'over furniture' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for throw that I've seen before include "Try not to win" , "Light cloth cover for furniture" , "Deliberately lose" , "lose on purpose" , "Toss" .)
