Help Avert a Strike at UOIT

(Oshawa – February 21, 2019)

The Faculty Association at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) is seeking your urgent help in their efforts to avert a strike.

Since October, UOITFA has been working hard to negotiate a fair deal to improve working and learning conditions by bringing them in line with those offered at other universities in Ontario. Yet, the administration has been stalling and not addressing any of the faculty association’s major concerns. Faculty members at UOIT have not had an improvement to their pension and benefits since the University first opened even though UOIT has run surpluses since 2011 that total $84 million.

Today is the last day of mediation and the strike deadline is set for February 23rd at midnight.

We are asking you to act to help avert a strike. You can help by visiting http://www.uoitfa.ca/take-action/ to send a letter to UOIT President and Board of Governors urging them to negotiate a fair agreement.

Thank you for your support.

Played with three dice and a crowded betting layout, sic bo offers more distinct wagers than almost any other table game. Each round is a single shake, and every bet on the felt resolves against that one result. The variety of options is the appeal and also the main source of confusion.

Reading The Sic Bo Betting Grid

The layout splits into simple totals, specific triples, number combinations and single number bets, each with its own payout and its own edge. Players learning the grid often Katana Spin to see the house percentages listed against each wager. The small and big bets, covering totals of four to ten and eleven to seventeen, carry roughly a 2.8 percent edge, the lowest on the table.

Bet GroupWhat To Know
Big and smallLowest edge on the layout
TotalsEdge varies widely by number
TriplesHuge payouts, worst percentages
  • Learn the simple totals before exploring the combination bets
  • Check the edge printed against each wager type

The crowded layout invites scattering small bets across many outcomes, which quietly raises the overall edge paid per round. Concentrating on the simple wagers keeps the mathematics as favourable as they get here. Treat the dice as entertainment, agree a budget in advance, and leave the exotic corners of the grid alone unless the cost is understood.
