A pursuit ensues and she ends up dying when a building in Venice sinks into the Grand Canal. We still don’t get the happy ending where James Bond walks away with the girl because Lynd who he had grown a liking for betrays him and keeps the money. The financier eventually loses the game and is killed by his own people when he admits that, in exchange for immunity, he was willing to surrender to the British government.

The casino action plays out with Bond finding out that one of the players is a CIA Agent and that Le Chiffre has some pretty obvious tells. Bond also enters the tournament and the British government sends Vesper Lynd, this film’s version of the bond girl, to deliver the $10 million required to enter the tournament. Le Chiffre opts to employ his skills as a genius mathematician and poker player in a $10 million buy-in Texas Hold’em tournament at the Casino Royale in Montenegro in a bid to make up for the lost money. The financier is, of course, not very happy about this, especially since he now cannot keep the promise of a huge payout that he had made to some terrorist groups. In the classic 007 fashion, James Bond rains on Le Chiffre’s parade by traveling to Miami and thwarting the planned plane crash. The move was meant to tank the shares of the airport which, as it turns out, Le Chiffre had shorted. This then leads him to the Bahamas where, in a poker game, he wins his iconic 1964 Aston Martin DB5 and discovers that Le Chiffre plans to destroy a new plane at the Miami airport.

The mission begins with Bond chasing down a bomb-maker in Madagascar who he ends up killing to obtain information. After this, Bond gets his first mission under the 00 status, and this mission is to forestall Le Chiffre, a terrorist-financing banker. He, however, does this by killing a rogue British section chief and his subordinate. Unlike previous 007 films, Casino Royale begins with James Bond having not achieved the 00 status.
