and the classic "Oh I prefer cash."
The scene where Le Chiffre busts Bond is brilliant on a few levels. At one level there is a human side of Bond exposed in a rare moment when his ego clouds his judgement in assessing Le Chiffre's ability to cross-examine his play style. This also forms the foundation for establishing Le Chiffre as a formidable villain along the likes of past greats like Goldfinger, Largo, etc., who actually never before displayed their own prowess in games like this (they did so in other ways). It's the crux of the psychological confrontation that forms the heart of CR. By the time Bond wins, he has re-exerted himself as the greater force in the contest. This is evident by the fact that Bond has the chip lead at that moment.
Look, the other two scenes (and honestly the whole top 10 was stacked) are very good. I like them more as Bond scenes in general than as casino scenes. I don't really think they hold a candle to what they do for their respective films. Almost all of Bond's development in the film is directly tied to the events and results of the game. The other scenes are just flavor with minor plot point progression.
Those are my final thoughts on it. It was still a fun game.
Therefore the DN scene is by far my favourite and DAF being my second favourite...
Surprised as well, I only remember plenty of tits...I mean plenty o'droole!....Toole...ahem..
