Chuck to leave for game (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bingo

'game' is the definition.
(bingo is a kind of game)

'chuck to leave' is the wordplay.
'chuck' becomes 'bin' ('bin' can be used as a verb).
'to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'leave' becomes 'go'.
'bin'+'go'='BINGO'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bingo that I've seen before include "Cry on discovering something" , "Game in which "two little ducks" might be called" , "Lotto" , "Popular gambling game in which numbers are called at random" , "House!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
