@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidSeems to be a tricky one. I was thinking "broker", but I don't know Bridge terminology.
Broken?
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidPretty sure that's correct.
Broken?
Broke N .. is the penniless bridge player (N for North). Put that together you have Broken = Busted.

@Earl-of-Trumps saidYeah, it has to be that. I think it's your turn now.
DRAWERS?
Or wait a little while for Paul's confirmation. I think he's an early riser.
And please make it an easy one, because I have a stupid one ready to go.

@Earl-of-Trumps saidThank you, Earl. Let's see if I can remember it:

On a side-note to the Bridge-related poser above, somehow decades ago at a garage sale I came into possession of a small black carrying-case for about a dozen sliders that each had four shuffled and pre-dealt hands -- somehow I think it was for some Bridge tournament in New York in 1924, but I don't remember why I think that.
@Arkturos saidDRAWERS was indeed correct.
