___ out a win (3)

I believe the answer is:

eke

(Other definitions for eke that I've seen before include "Make a laborious living" , "long ago" , "Supplement" , "Increase, lengthen" , "addition to Scots" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the Universal, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal.
