Last time we finished learning "put(lay) one's cards on the table" which means "tell somebody all your planes , ideas, etc. are" and it's antonym is "play(hold / keep) one's cards close to one's chest" and it's ynonym is "beat around the bush". At the end of the programme, I left some translation exercises for you to absorb the lesson. And now I am about let the amswer out in the open.
