A couple of weeks ago as the Aussie Millions came to a close, an American poker player named Jason Potter was held at knifepoint after he busted out of the tournament. He was on his way to the local McDonalds at 4:30am with $30,000 in cash in the pocket of his hoodie when he was clocked in the back of his head and robbed.

Brilliant! Maybe he thought his magical powers would save him from this kind of thing and he just couldn't get to his wand on time? Wait... What? Wrong Potter? Well, then going out with that much cash is just stupid.

Either way, Victoria Police arrested two Melbourne men, 32-year-old Dwayne Johnstone of St Albans and 27-year-old Vhyharn Arumughasamu of Wheeler’s Hill, and charged them with armed robbery today. Arumaghasamu was also charged with having a ridiculous name and for pissing off the court clerk, who had to write it 50 times while filling out the paperwork. Seriously, what the hell is that name? Sounds like a spell that knocks down Americans who walk around a strange city with $30,000 in their pockets.

Magic is real.
