I presume you mean the Tchaikovsky opera, "Pique Dame" ["Queen of Spades"]. right?

The Russian composer Peter Tchaikovsky, known for such works as his Violin Concerto and the "1812 Overture," also wrote a few operas. While his most famous work in that genre was "Eugene Onegin," based upon the epic poem by Russia's most revered poet -- Alexander Pushkin -- he also composed an opera whose title translates into English as "Queen of Spades."
It was a play on words.
