If you know what an antonym is, then it might point you in the right direction...
Haha yeah I was going to say I'm not sure if we have the same understanding of the word 'clue' :D but that's more useful...

Antilogy refer to terms, ideas and sentences that basically contradict each other.
The word I was looking for was "contronym", which refers to a singular word that has an opposite or contradictory meaning depending on it's context.
Examples from above...
Buckle. (to tighten or collapse)
I buckled my belt.
My knees buckled.
Left (to stay or depart)
I left the kids at home.
I left the house.
Bolt. (to secure or flee)
She bolted the door.
The horse bolted.

Take thirteen playing cards of any suit. Put them into a small pack and move the top card to the bottom of the pack while spelling out the name of the card i.e Ace, A-C-E, Two, T-w-o, etc. all the way up to Jack, Queen and King. At the end of each spelling turn up the top card of the deck and remove it. What is the initial order of the cards in this pack if by spelling and removal the whole sequence from Ace to King may be achieved ?
As an obvious clue, the fourth card in the pack, in descending order, will be the Ace and the eighth will be the Two.
