Fireside game? (5)
I believe the answer is:
poker
This might be a double definition.
'fireside' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'game?' is the second definition.
(I know that poker is a card game)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for poker that I've seen before include "Jabber" , "stud, say?" , "A game for the fireplace implement" , "One of many irons in the fire" , "Fire prodder; game" .)
