The poker pot


So early in the film someone says: "10M buy-in, 5M re buy"

There are 10 players at the start meaning 100M in the pot. But at the end Mathis says to Vesper: "115M in the pot". So that means that 3 ppl had to spend an extra 5M.
Bond receives Felix's re buy and so I doubt Felix separately gave him the chips AND then also bought himself back in. They don't show anyone else lose. So any idea who it was?

The name's Bond, James Bond.

Felix's line "does it look like we need the money?" signals it's still possible he bought back in.

And still lost, of course, but bankrolling Bond saved the day.

What no man Can give ya. And none Can take away.

Alright but that still only makes it 110M so someone else obviously bought themselves back. They could of shown it.

I've always heard "150 million in the pot" which would mean everyone bought back in.

Even if was 150 or 115, who cares? We don't need to see every minute of the game. You're gonna show me every person bust and buy back in then you may as well show me what they're eating for dinner later on.

What am I gonna do... with a gun rack?

Yeah I had always heard 150M but when I rewatched the film, I heard 115M. Kinda sad that I then checked it on a quote website (I really did). Answer- Mathis says 115M.

But you're right about overthinking the film in the first place . Just love it soo much :) . Btw I would definitely watch them eat if it were in the outtakes.

I heard 150 but it wouldn’t make sense as Bond doesn’t buy back in, Vesper doesn’t allow it.
