It is unbeatable at the card table (3,2,6)
I believe the answer is:
ace of trumps
'it is unbeatable at' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'card table' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'card' could be 'trump' (e.g. in bridge or whist) and 'trump' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
