Lottery cancelled? Suck it up (7)
I believe the answer is:
drawoff
'suck it up' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'lottery cancelled?' is the wordplay.
'lottery' becomes 'draw' (as in a prize draw).
'cancelled?' becomes 'off' (similar in meaning).
'draw'+'off'='DRAWOFF'
