According to WordReference, it's "tener algo en cartera" - no "la".

That's what I saw but wasn't sure if ~ replaced "la cartera" or just "cartera". So you think it means no "la?" - Jubilado, Jan 25, 2012
Yeah, I do. The local dictionary also spells it out straight "tener algo en cartera (figurative) -> to have something in the pipeline" - NickDan, Jan 25, 2012
Thanks, amigo, I'm going to accept your answer after a bit. - Jubilado, Jan 25, 2012
