Win every last penny from Lance, cryptically (5,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

clean out

'win every last penny from' is the definition.

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Another definition for clean out that I've seen is " Leave (someone) with no money (slang)".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
