You now have the tunnel keys: Once you land on any tunnel, there is no need to roll the dice to see if you can pass to an exit - just present this card and you can head on through. As always, once on the exit wait for the next turn to move off of it. Yes you can bump another player on the exit and entrance of tunnel. Tunnel movement is usually the last step in your turn.

Never. say woah in a tight spot: I’m unsure of this truism, but it depends on how fast one thinks, I suppose. Anyway, keep this ticket to use when you really need a certain dice outcome and you want to re-roll. It can be used on two or one dice rolls, cave-ins and movement - but not on the Plummers square. The re-roll sticks though so be happy with that outcome.

Save this ticket for anytime in your turn when you need to head to the safety square where nobody can bump you. Use it once and return to the pile

You are a friend of Mr. Clarke: Keep this ticket handy for when someone attempts to rob a green or blue mining chip from you. Present it after the opponent lands on your token and asks you to present the chips. Use once then discard into the pile.

Bank Robbery: Keep the ticket for an opportune time. At the end of your turn, present this ticket to any player and announce that you plan to rob them of one chip. You do not need to land nor bump the poor person. There is only one of these cards in the pile. Follow the usual procedure for robbing. This can not be used for a player who has all tokens already into finish. Return to the bottom of the pile.

Fearlessness is not the lack of fear - Sometimes people get ahead of themselves. Keep for the opportune time. The ticket allows you to move backwards essentially.. Move the token nearest to the ladder to any mine that is there for the taking - or to your own mine that remains unfinished.
