Default Re: Casino Royale

<font color="white"> Actually, I think the board was AKKJJ on that hand. I know the plot point was that Bond thought the Villian was bluffing, but if he put the Villian on a K, Bond wins with the higher full house.

I think Bond made a mistake saying that the Villian "raised" the first time he was bluffing, when in fact I believe the Villian just bet when he had the 22. He never "raised" Bond.

The poker was actually decent, I agree overall. For a mainstream movie, it was done mostly right. I couldn't tell if they intentionally had Bond sloppily push all-in everytime he did it or what. That seemed kind of un-Bondlike and also is generally poor etiquette. But then, I guess the point of the movie was that Bond was kind of still rough around the edges.</font>
