Revenge is a recurring idea in the story. James Bond makes his fight against Blofeld more than just a fight of the British government, as represented by one of its secret agents, against an international criminal. In a similar way, when Tracy loses her money at the baccarat table and Bond covers her bet, Bond makes his gamble personal against the other player, a man Bond does not know. Suddenly, the other player is a "monster".
