What a fine spread of votes . almost all the definitions covered!

An intriguing entry from Chris Carson earns him 4 natural points, and the
next deal.
The true definition was No.2 "clockwise". which was chosen 2 canny players.

Urk! Here we go again. I really have to spend more time on my Feds.
Another quickie puts me in the dealer's chair. New word will be along
tomorrow, probably in the afternoon after 18 holes.
