Are we referring to a 9-letter expression used in Bridge by any chance?

So the 42/27 expression is not in Chambers. How unfair!

As far as I can see, the standard abbreviation of the title is another way of expressing 42/27. Can't see the name of a game there.

Yes -which is an expression used in a game and hints to the unclued lights and pair reference.
