Sets a snare and gets what one deserves (5)
I believe the answer is:
earns
'one deserves' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'sets a snare' is the wordplay.
'sets' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'set' mean this (instruction to set the letters)).
'snare' with letters rearranged gives 'EARNS'.
'and gets what' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for earns that I've seen before include "Grosses" , "Acquires by effort" , "Works for pay" , "ready for work?" , "Gains by labour" .)
