Bond’s straight flush in Casino Royale – absurd!

There’s just no way he would call into the hand with a suited 5/7.  And it’s even less likely that he’d get a straight flush.  Part of me wishes they’d have gone with a more believable poker hand for the final showdown between Bond and Le Chiffre…but oh well.

And to make matters worse, when Bond raises all=in on Le Chiffre, he displays poor poker etiquette by splashing the pot with his chips!

What an epic fax (“print-put transmission unit”) from Bond on the Liparus to the two submarines!  Bond goes nuclear and destroys both in The Spy Who Loved Me, saving the world from fallout.  Epic double kill!
