Historically, the phrase, "Dead Man's Hand" was given to the last poker hand that Wild Bill Hickok had been dealt when he was murdered during a game of five-card-draw. Although there is quite the controversy over what those five cards were or even if there actually were five cards when the infamous Hickok was slain, there appears to be a general mind that he was holding a pair of 8's and a pair of Ace's. However, the most controversial aspect about the poker hand in question, was the the number and suit of the fifth card.

The result of an epic Pac Man gaming session. The hand is tight like a claw, and generally the thumbs, wrists and fingers are unusable. Like RSI, but with more immediate effects.

The condition can also be brought on by other arcade and console games especially if you are the competitive sort and are a bit heavy handed with the joystick/controller.
