Card-game seldom breaches run (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ombre

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'card-game' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'seldom breaches run' is the wordplay.
'OMBRE' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I'm unsure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ombre that I've seen before include "- Stravinsky, composer" , "With blending colours" , "Tricky game" , "Card-game for three; rob me (anag.)" , "Card game, the name derived from the Spanish for man" .)
