Six different parties (Jack, Will, Norrington, Elizabeth, Ragetti/Pintel and Davy Jones's men), two different Plot Coupons (the chest and the key), as well as several other variables (the waterwheel, and often the weapons and who has them) and somehow it's still easy to tell what's going on. As awesome as the swordfight itself is, it's an even bigger Moment of Awesome for editors Stephen Rikvin and Craig Wood.The entire three-way swordfight at the climax of Dead Man's Chest, not to mention the two swords, three people fight.Jones takes his loss with surprising grace, and just as he's leaving Will challenges him to the second game for the key The two go back and forth trading barbs until Will actually guesses correctly and bests Jones. In the first (deleted) game, it's Will and Davy Jones playing one on one with Will playing for the freedom of his father. In a deleted scene, it turns out there are TWO games of liars dice played.Jones, who had already dismissed Bootstrap as a threat at this point and was focused entirely on Will (who, as noted below, had managed to beat him once already in a deleted scene), didn't notice that Bootstrap was reversing the usual turn order, making play proceed anticlockwise so that his turn would come after Will, making it impossible for Jones to call Will a liar and rigging the whole game so that his son couldn't possibly lose. It's also noted in a comment on that video that the Bootstrap's true bluff, the greatest in the game that went unnoticed by either of the other players and uncommented on by the film, was when he said "it's your bid, captain".Davy Jones: And be called a liar myself for the trouble? (checks dice) Bootstrap Bill, you're a liar and you will spend an eternity on this ship! (to Will) Master Turner, feel free to go ashore.
