How long did you lay up there on the bluff this time, waiting to catch me when I wasn't looking? "I suppose you and Foxy and that halfbreed have been fixing up some more evidence, huh? You figure that I can't catch 'em this time and work the brands over, so they'll stand Y6es, and I'll get railroaded to the pen. Well, you've overplayed your hand, old-timer. I let you fellows down easy, last time.
They've overplayed their hand. In fact, I see no end of the war. The Allies are not going to quit prematurely. They won't even discuss the subject yet with one another, and the Germans, by their peace-talk of the sort that they inspire, simply postpone the day when the Allies will take the subject up. All the while, too, the Allies work closer and closer together.
There was something pitiful in her tone of reproach. "No. What made you think I had?" "Mr. Marston told me!" "Did he tell you why?" "I guessed that, and I thanked you in my heart." David was disconcerted; the woman he saw corresponded so ill with what he was schooling himself to believe her. He sought to conceal his confusion, as she had once done, and played a part. Like her, he overplayed it.
"Maybe I overplayed my hand, but just the same, I still think I'm the best to say what's to be done and maybe get us out of a jam, and I can't have Helen or Rodan or anybody else doing any more cockeyed things to screw matters up even worse than they are." Nelsen trussed Rodan up, too, then searched Rodan's thigh pouch and found a bunch of keys. "You come along with me, Les and Helen," he said.
Which would indicate that Stella Kamps, in her protean endeavours, had overplayed the parts just a trifle. He had expected to miss the boys at the bank. He had expected to miss the Mandolin Club. The Mandolin Club met, officially, every Thursday and spangled the Texas night with their tinkling.
Though the story had not come at first hand, she believed it was true, and thought from her knowledge of him that the man would weaken under a mild third degree. Clay summed up in a sentence the result of all the evidence they had collected. "It's not any longer a question of whether Bromfield goes to prison, but of Durand. The fellow has sure overplayed his hand."
Couldn't fill a hand, an' when I did, couldn't get it to stand up. That last queen looked like money from home. I reckon I overplayed it," he ruminated aloud, while he waited for Mike Moran to give him another of the same. Tom hooked his heel on the rail in front of the bar. "I ain't made up my mind yet that game was on the level.
"Say, we kinda overplayed that bet, by gracious," Andy commented to Weary, while he watched the chase. "That gazabo's scared silly; let's try the other one. That torture talk works fine." In his enthusiasm Andy remounted and was about to lead the way to the other herder when Big Medicine returned puffing, the bug-killer squirming in his grasp.
Herring, in desperation, had overplayed! But no it lost momentum as it topped a rise, then gathered speed, all but died at the edge of the cup and toppled in amid a salvo of handclaps and roar of "Bravo!" That was nerve, courage, skill! That was golf! The miracle had happened! Another hole to decide the match.
Frank asked, in a moment. "You mean our talk about criminals pointing the way to their own destruction by unwise activity in defensive methods? Of course I remember it. If what we suspect is true, though, Ned rather overplayed it in this case, and got caught." "We don't know yet whether he got caught or not. We only know that he is unaccountably missing.
