Poker terminology.
When someone raises early (usually pre-flop if playing Holdem) just to push other players around, and you just can't take that smug grin on his face, you re-raise a ridiculous amount and "drop the hammer." This most often occurs during a Testosterone Fight, and the object is to make the other player put his testosterone hose away and fold. Since it is pre-flop, this has nothing to do with the cards you have, just plain good ol' fashioned balls.
