allowing that ~

air out

by inches

frown on

on the quiet

at a stroke

by the hour

beat A to it

let slip

by the side of

rub off on

against the clock

be big on

a good bet

go round the bend

by touch

deck out

call around

the next thing I knew

pass muster

stay the course

count against

call A's bluff

scratch one's head

in the frame

hold against

deck out

call away

bust out

one of the boys

at one's own game

call over

get tough with

come out ahead

see red

call the tune

to the root

can't buy

clean house

have A at heart
