Game that shows forbearance (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

patience

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'game' is the first definition.
(I know that patience is a type of card game)

'forbearance' is the second definition.
(I know that forbearance can be written as patience)

'that shows' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for patience that I've seen before include "that one plays" , "show" , "Gilbertian dairymaid" , "likely to be lost by the hot-tempered" , "capacity for endurance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
