What happened the first time I hit the ALL is the reason why I am posting this.
I had the dice for about ten minutes when I had three numbers remaining to be hit: the 11, 5 and 8. Remember that: the 11, 5 and 8.
I threw the 11, and then when I threw the 5 I was paid for the Small. Now, only one number on the layout remained "unmarked" and it was the 8. Remember that, one number remained unmarked and it was the 8.
I kept throwing: I hit an 11 twice, and then a 10 and then 4 and then another 4.
I looked at the layout and said out loud -- "I need an 8. I need an 8."
And then I stopped cold and said "but the point is eight! I have the eight!"
Yes -- all this time I had already established the point of 8 BUT THE DEALERS DIDN'T MARK IT on the layout.
Only one other player was on the Bonus bets and he yelled out "he's right, he's right."
The dealers stopped cold. We called a floorman because there was no floorman at the table. He looked, saw that the point was 8 and said "pay them."
Bottom line: you have to be sure the numbers get marked.
