Thomas Kremser told us a funny story at the break. He was apparently the original person asked to be the dealer at the crucial poker game in the James Bond film Casino Royale.
However it clashed with two tournaments he was doing and a skiing holiday and Thomas did not know how crucial the dealer role actually was. He ended up passing it on to the Casino in Vienna which is how the dealer from that casino got the role.
However, we can't confirm that there are deleted scenes of Thomas being the Tournament Director of the Casino Royale tournament and then giving James Bond a warning for slowrolling in the final hand.
