Clip one unfairly in a game (7)
I believe the answer is:
pinocle
'a game' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'clip one unfairly' is the wordplay.
'unfairly' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'clip'+'one'='clipone'
'clipone' anagrammed gives 'PINOCLE'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for pinocle that I've seen is " card game".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
