What do you like to think happens to Tuco after the film ends?

Im guessing he eventually got himself out of the ropes and took the gold and back tracked to the river where they blew up the bridge earlier to get water and after that probably found his way back to civilization possibly back to the church or a town and lived it up with his new found wealth.
Its crazy that Ive read on other places that some people actually believe he would of just sat out there and died with his hands tied after they spent the whole film showing how savvy he was. I also don't get why some theories are he would go after blondie for the rest of the gold, its kind of established that he and Blonde are "friends" at the point of blowing the bridge because it was Tucos idea to reveal each others secret and he actually gave him the correct information and not a lie so that says something.
Also when Blondie helped him in the showdown against angel eyes gang in that town suggests they had a sort of bond as well. Its also got to mean something that at the end when hes running towards the camera screaming "blonde you know what you are, just a dirty son of a bitch" instead of saying he was a pig like all the other times so I doubt he would of wanted to go after him. -

Disagree about the friends. I think one of the whole reasons Blondie does the noose trick is so he can get away without a confrontation with Tuco. I think the implication is that half wasn't good enough for Tuco and he would have wanted to kill Blondie in order to have it all.
In fact, remember the only reason Blondie is alive at this point is because he knew the name on the grave. Otherwise he'd be a shriveled corpse in the desert. -

I imagine he gets out of there and blows all his money and has to go right back to being a bandit. Eventually gets hung. His character just doesn't seem the type to do anything else. He'd screw up some how.

I agree that Blondie put Tuco through that last exercise to discourage him from going after Blondie again. I think Tuco would know better; there are really no more scores to settle; and Blondie has shown himself to be faster on several draws than Tuco. So Tuco would pack up his share of the gold and live nicely as long as it lasted. I like to think he might make an anonymous gift to his brother, but somehow doubt the rift between them can be mended.
It's possible he might end up hanged, but Tuco is very much a survivor, and just might be able to die old in bed. I like to think so, anyway.
