Win back, as losses (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

recoup

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">win back as losses</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for recoup that I've seen before include "Reimburse or compensate" , "Get back or recover - say losses" , "Get back one's losses" , "Regain (something lost)" , "recover money" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
