Feeling of resentment as card game curtailed (5)
I believe the answer is:
pique
'feeling of resentment' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'card game curtailed' is the wordplay.
'card game' becomes 'piquet' (piquet is a kind of card game).
'curtailed' means to remove the last letter.
'piquet' with its final letter removed is 'PIQUE'.
'as' is the link.
(Other definitions for pique that I've seen before include "Resentful feeling" , "Offence taken" , "Feeling of resentment or indignation" , "Hurt feelings" , "Petulant anger" .)
