man that is harsh...sounds to me like one of those girls made an enemy earlier that day.

Amazing part is it sounds like they raided the place with storm troopers. Far more pressing issues to worry about such as robberies and murder, not a bloody card game!

Probably the husband of one of the women, who had gambled the week's housekeeping away

Yes, yes, I know. It doesn't say that any money was involved, but that's because it went into someone's pocket.
