He cheats - by giving two cards instead of one? (6-6)
I believe the answer is:
double-dealer
'he cheats by giving two cards instead of one?' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.
'he' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'he' could be 'eal' and 'eal' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for double-dealer that I've seen before include "Deceitful person" , "Person who says one thing and does another" , "Deceitful individual" , "Deceiver, cheat" .)
