@philcottie,
hi philcottie
my ultimate crossword dictionary defines spieler as barker, cardsharp, salesman, spruiker, swindler.
Hope this helps.

i only do crosswords here

can you make them a bit harder sometimes, uno, wrong number of letters, incorrect acrostics, transposed clues: it's more fun that way
