Those with an understanding of how boxing bets work have explained that it was financially better for Butch to bet on himself, betray Marsellus, and run away with the money, though the question remains as to why he took such a big risk, as Marsellus and company were obviously going to retaliate.
Vincent comes out of the bathroom to find Butch pointing Marcellus' gun at him. After a few tense seconds, Butch shoots Vincent dead, avenging his early insult.

Butch breaks free and is about to escape, but decides to save Marsellus and arms himself with a katana from the pawnshop. He kills Maynard and frees Marsellus, who shoots Zed in the crotch with Maynard's shotgun.
In the film, the role of Pumpkin went to Tim Roth. According to recent reports, however, Tarantino had made a backup plan if Tom Roth had refused. In the list of actors to play the role of Pumpkin, Johnny Depp was a strong second contender and the world would have surely loved him in that role!
That's unknowable, but reflect that Jules, who believes he has been saved by God, lives -- while Vincent, the scoffer, dies. He's shot by Butch as he comes out of the bathroom (lots of things happen in this movie while people are in the john).
