Mr. Logan flinches and draws his hand back about an inch out of reflex, though does not relinquish the money.   The reason for his ‘bravery’ in the face of the threats becomes more apparent as the 4 roughnecks from the other table stand up and approach the poker table, as do two of the men at the bar…. The six of them positioning themselves to surround the table.  

One bumps his shoulder hard against Phineas as they pass him, but otherwise do not prevent him from removing himself from the situation.  None are holding visible weapons, but their postures make it clear they are Mr. Logan's muscle. 

[i]"Do you know why they call me Big Knife?"[/i]

“I assume because ‘they’ are savages that name their children after weapons,” Logan sniped back, his face growing even redder, looking down his nose at the slightly shorter man.  

"Now, I don't know how, but you have all been cheating me.  This money is mine."
