Digested notice about card game (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abridged

'digested' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'notice about card game' is the wordplay.
'notice' becomes 'ad'.
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'card game' becomes 'bridge' (bridge is a kind of card game).
'ad' placed around 'bridge' is 'ABRIDGED'.

(Other definitions for abridged that I've seen before include "Shortened as book may be" , "Abbreviated, contracted" , "Shorter" , "Epitomised" , "Cut short - big adder (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
