He picked up the pace to a jog to see a large man holding onto the arm of a young woman. "Please, take my money but just let me go home to my daughter"

"No no no, first we're gonna have some fun"

The thugs tried to back out, but couldn't find a gap in the knights, "h-hey f-f-fuck you man!" He swings a plank with iron spikes at one knight, it goes flying past the knight along with the thugs hands. Within seconds a death brawl ensues

I'll allow it but they won't have too much power and only so many will have formal training

"Hahaha look, the drunkard has a sword!" He calls out two more friends with daggers "I bet this guy is seeing double"

"At least we can pawn that knife of his" They all advance

Big Boy sizes him up and stares into Arahad's eyes. "Pat him up" A large man searches him, not finding anything, until the last second "Hey boss this guys got a knife!"

Big Boy gives a 'calm down' gesture "it's ok, it's not as safe where he comes from, a man needs his protection" he gives Arahad an assurative look "Don't worry though, Pelargir is a safe place, you don't have to watch your back like in Amroth, we'll deal you in next round"

(Ok morgoth, we can change your background if you are so opposed but this isn't lore and it will still result in you being asked to investigate)

"You know the rules, no money, no protection, and no protection means the shark can do whatever he wants to you. You don't want that do you?"

A third and much deeper voice, probably the shark says "yeah you really don't want that..."

"I beg of you I have nothing, just a few dozen coins for food"

Galahad can hear a blade being drawn, "ok then"

While I wait for it to come time for the next round, I size up the other players, looking for any odd bulges in their clothing which might be hidden weapons. In the meantime, I watch as Big Boy nearly loses everything and then comes back from the brink to win the whole pot.
