Thanks everybody. Shaneystar2 and dannyk13, I think it is stock and not stack as I have the wordfinder solution and there is only one a in the answer not two.
It's definitely stock not stack. Stack means to pile something up, put things one on top of another. Stock means things that you keep in store ready to use.
4d samovar
Stock is correct: definition 19.......

2d. Stick. No cards dealt.
I can't see any answer for 7a other than Better Half, I can't see the word play though. Can anyone enlighten me please?
I've just twigged it:

Bet is half of better = better half and better half = wife
