            Craps is ~1% to the house on the pass line, about as best as you can get for straight up random. Play well, and you can take some of that edge off, like betting your hardways on point, making sure to take odds on the back, and diversify your rolls. Avoid the field, don't get suckered into hoppers, and occasionally bet the don't pass.

            I make enough playing craps to fund my blackjack runs.

              What style of shoes are we talking here....as in what are they for? Everyday use, sports use, smart use...? We need more details!!

              daily drivers.... I wear Champion tennis shoes to work and pretty much everywhere. I have dress shoes for the rare time I need them, so I am looking for a replacement for my daily driver.

              They don't need to be tennis shoes to replace them.. it's not like I'm going out running in them... so a damn comfortable non making my feet hot pair of shoes would be fine too.

              M DC Pure SE are super comfy and last a long time for me, but I know that style isn't everyone's cup of tea 😉

              yep kinda plain

              Yeah, some look better than others, I have a pair that seems to be discontinued, but they're black grey and white (can't be anything TOO exciting for work)...

                I get away with murder dress code wise. We are required to wear business attire but they also allow flip flops for some reason. First day I wore a suit with flip flops. Come at me HR

                  I have been wearing DVS for several years. The ones I currently wear should have been retired a year ago but they are mostly comfortable. The ones I got to replace them (another pair of DVS) need to be broken in and I wore them once and didn't get the lacing tight enough so I just stuck with these (instead of just tightening the lacing).

                  2 weeks ago I was replacing a power steering hose on my STi and dripped some ATF on the top of them. I should just bite the bullet already.

                        In one of my previous jobs that I didn't like so much, we were allowed to wear khakis with a company branded polo or a button down shirt with a tie. I got tired of the crappy polo shirts that would shrink up and not in so I started wearing short-sleeved plaid button down shirts and a tie that I left tied but would put on at the beginning of the day and take off for lunch and repeat. The knot was super tight after awhile. It got interesting when a nice lady that worked a couple offices over cleaned out her husband's tie collection and gave us all his old ones. They were super ugly and went "nicely" with the plaid shirts I wore.

                        Here, I can wear jeans with button down shirts or polos but I gave that up a long time ago. I now wear jeans and t-shirts with a hoodie when it is cold.

                            We have casual Fridays here. I want to build a model head of Pops from Regular Show wearing a full suit and see what they say. Technically I'm not violating the rules.

                              Big fan of the steel toed static dissipating slip on made by Mellow Walk (actually made by hand in Toronto!). I own 2 pair of these, they are that good.

                              After I got my current job I have begun to wear running shoes. Mostly because that's the shoe of choice at my (rather eccentric) work place. I wear dress pants, golf shirt un-tucked and running shoes - which is rather odd, but also much more fabric than many of my co-workers are wearing at any given time.

                                You should wear a cape and when people ask you about it say what cape

                                        All of my work shoes are just worn and beaten down running shoes that aren't fit for pavement anymore. Fortunately, they are still comfortable.

                                        Merrill Road Gloves, Sketchers GoRun 4's, and (what I'm currently wearing) Altra Torin 1.5.

                                        The Sketchers are suprisingly durable and one of the lightest shoes I've ever owned. The Altras have a HUGE toebox and extremely comfortable for longer runs where your feet might start to swell. The Merrills and Altras are zero drop, but the Sketchers Go Run have a 4mm drop.

                                          Interesting.. this is the problem I have with my latest pair of Nike's - the toe box is small.. .just walking hurts my feet. I typically wear size 12 normal - these are just small.

                                            The Altras have a HUGE toebox and extremely comfortable for longer runs where your feet might start to swell.

                                            Interesting.. this is the problem I have with my latest pair of Nike's - the toe box is small.. .just walking hurts my feet. I typically wear size 12 normal - these are just small.

                                            You should definitely give a pair of Altras a spin then, the extra room is amazing and they fit great otherwise. I like being able to "splay" my toes out when my foot strikes the ground, it feels a lot more natural than what you get from most other shoes. The Sketcher GoRuns are not joke either. I was skeptical about buying a pair until I put them on. They are so light it almost feels like they are not there. I've had them for a little over 5 months now and they are just now starting to really wear out to the point I shouldn't run anything over 2 miles in them.
