Solomons' Golden Ticket
![[user80015]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
A regular cash game grinder at Crown Casino, he got his hands on a general $250 Phase Two Aussie Millions ticket from a guy who couldn’t use it. Saving a few bucks, and thinking what the hell, he bought it off him and headed home after a good day on the felt.
Arriving home, his seven-month old Staffy puppy was whipping her tail and barking loudly after being in the house all day. Being close to dusk he thought a nice stroll down to the beach via the river would do the both of them some good. The gentle stroll turned into a beach wrestle to burn some energy before returning home, only to find that the Phase Two ticket that sat in his hoodie pocket had now vanished.
Annoyed, angered and pretty much a little peeved-off, Solomons decided to drive back to the beach to search; but alas nothing came of it. On the bike he went to retrace his every footstep, and again nothing came of it. Nightfall approached and a dropped head followed as Solomons returned home along the beaten path by the river. With his eyes still darting back and forth, his focus was thrown to a tiny folded blue-bordered piece of paper only meters off the track and from the slow-twisting river.
Solomons had found it, but that wasn’t the end of it. He ventured to Crown Casino to parlay that Phase Two ticket into an $1,100 Phase Three ticket before sneaking past the bubble to claim his 2009 Aussie Millions seat in today’s flight.
Will his "golden ticket" reap him the gold and riches of the Aussie Millions? Can this near-lost piece of paper be his road to AU$2,000,000? Sitting with 40,000 chips as we head into the fourth level, we can only wait and see . . .
