Default Re: Casino Royale ** INLINE SPOILERS **

In the final hand, I thought they sacrificed accuracy for dramatic effect - they had the players show their hands in reverse order - the side pots should have shown first, and the main pot last....

Since they switched from baccarat to Hold'em in response to the poker craze, I think they missed an opportunity for some typical Bond movie tongue-in-cheek humor. (Like having Richard Branson stuck in screening at the airport - did you notice that one?) I think they should have included a known poker personality (Helmuth, Brunson, etc.) playing in the game - it would have been hilarious if Hellmuth threw a tantrum if Bond or the villian had eliminated him - funnier still if he got rubbed out.....
