A few pax met early for the tg10 EC workout. YHC forgot to tell his Apple Watch what was happening and only got credit for an outdoor walk. It felt harder than that. Apple still has some work to do.

WARM UP
SSH, Hillbillies, M. Phelps, arm circles, cherry picker, WMH, Downdog, World’s Greatest stretch

THE THANG
F3 Craps
• PAX take turns being the Shooter
• On the come-out roll, if a 2,3,7,11 or 12 is rolled, the shooter craps out, all PAX perform 5 burpees and the next pax becomes the Shooter.
• If a 4,5,6,8,9 or 10 is rolled, that number becomes the point, the exercise associated with that number is the Point Exercise, and the Shooter continues to roll until he either rolls the Point or craps out.
• Every roll, the PAX perform the number of reps of the Point Exercise equal to the number on the dice.
• If the Point is rolled, all PAX win, no exercise is performed, and the next pax becomes the Shooter.
• If the Shooter craps out by rolling a 7 before timing the point, all PAX perform 7 reps of that round’s exercise plus 5 burpees

COT
Today is International Casino Day.
While we had a little fun with it, and hopefully became a bit stronger for it, remember, The House Always Wins in the Long Run. They stack the odds a little bit in their favor so they always win in the long run.

While that may sound a bit defeatist, the takeaway is to find your own version of being the house. What can we do to make sure that we’ve got a slight edge so that we win in the long run?
Don’t make dumb bets, or blind bets, or hopeful bets. Make bets that are proven to pay off in the long run: a bet on your family, on education, discipline, hard work, sound investing. Find things that gives you an edge in how you want your life to turn out and make a bet on those things.
