Is this a poker game term?
Does it have any other extended meaning?
@fansy,
Yes it is a poker term. Your "hand" are the cards you have.
As to other meanings it can obviously have literal meaning. Think of two hand models arguing over who has the "better hand".

Can we take it to mean "to have upper hand" in this context?
