The Lottery Ticker by Anton Checkov (Yudhistira Yudha Sulisworo 2010117210020) The Lottery Ticket is about a middle-class man named Ivan, who reads the paper and tells his wife that the first few numbers of the winning lottery number are the same as her lottery ticket. Excited, they each fantasize about how they would spend the money, but their thoughts soon shift and become resentful, as each imagines how the winnings will negatively change their spouse. Their plans are interrupted when they notice that the winning lottery number is one different than Ivan's wife's ticket. Realizing they have not won anything, they resume their lives.
