an even break informal A fair chance: the fact is suckers never get an even break...- What's been largely missing, though, through these pell-mell days, has been the time to rethink pat agendas rather than fit the facts around them - or the imagination to give the suckers on all sides an even break.
- So they don't want to give a sucker an even break if they can possibly help it, because rotation potentially has massive implications on player's ability to be able to ply their trade.
- None reaches fulfilment, for they're damned by their own mediocrity and the plain fact that a sucker never gets an even break.
