Game that could give you your big break? (7)

I believe the answer is:

snooker

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

This clue could be a double definition.

'game that could give you your' is the first definition.
'snooker' can be an answer for 'game' (snooker is a game). I am unsure of the remainder of the definition.

'big break?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
I also know that 'break' relates to this answer.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for snooker that I've seen before include "check?" , "Game with coloured balls" , "A form of pool" , "Cue sport" , "Game played on a billiards table" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
