It would be cool if you tried to do something similar, even if someone isnt chasing you while you are there.
I'm thinking it was much more than $20.00 because the cash he threw in the air was the big pile he'd just taken off of Kamal Khan over at the casino in one of those tense Bond baccarat showdowns. I doubt Bond and Khan were playing nickel-dime-quarter baccarat.
