Crossword Genius

A big hand from capacity audience (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

full house

I believe this is a double definition.

'a big hand' is the first definition.
(poker hand)

'capacity audience' is the second definition.

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for full house that I've seen before include "capacity crowd" , "well-attended party" , "Promising hand" , "Rather good hand" , "building used a good deal?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
