A puzzle that involves cryptic clues of the type found in cryptic crosswords, but is not a cryptic crossword. DO NOT use this tag for puzzles that are stated cryptically; use [enigmatic-puzzle] instead. Use [cryptic-crosswords] for whole crosswords; [crossword-clues] for crossword clues not obeying the conventions of cryptic crosswords (even if they are stated cryptically).

How is "OPPOSE" the answer to "Don't act like a pro (6)"?
Clue from the West Australian Cryptic Crossword 13/5/2021:
"Don't act like a pro (6)"
Answer: OPPOSE
I can see that "act" gives POSE", but how do you get to "OPPOSE"?
