The stakes don't get high enough to warrant betting an Aston Martin in more than a handful of places ( this is the biggest game in Vegas, for example) but it's not that big a deal when compared to the rest of the poker scenes.īond claiming to find Le Chiffre's 'tell' (also when Bond tells Vesper everyone has a tell).

I'm actually pretty embarrassed that I just realized that people sometimes lie about their hands ) (edit: unless of course le Chiffre was bluffing. Wouldn't Le Chiffre want him to call the allin bet since he's an 80% favorite? That makes his comment about having two pair just pointless showing off that probably cost him money. Le Chiffre correctly (apparently) guesses that his opponent has a straight draw, which means he has a 20%~ of making his hand on the river.

So here's some things about the poker scenes that have come to bother me more as I've gotten more into poker: Movies and TV always seem to fall into this trap when doing poker. I love CR, but the poker scenes are pretty awful for the most part.
