Three linked side bets: hit all numbers 2–6 before a 7 (Small), all numbers 8–12 (Tall), or all numbers 2–12 (All). Each pays on its own — Small and Tall pay 34:1, All pays 174:1.
All/Tall/Small is a 3-unit side bet placed before a new come-out roll. Each unit targets a different group of numbers that must all appear at least once before a 7 is rolled:
| Bet | Numbers Required | Cost | Payout |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 | 1 unit | 34:1 |
| Tall | 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 | 1 unit | 34:1 |
| All | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 | 1 unit | 174:1 |
Each number just needs to appear once — it doesn't have to be a point or a come-out. Any roll that shows the number counts. The bet stays active until a 7 clears the table. Multiple bets can win on the same roll (e.g., if Small completes on the roll that also completes Tall, both pay).
Note: The 7 itself is not in either group — it only acts as the losing trigger. A 7 ends all three bets simultaneously regardless of progress.
| Bet | P(Win) | Payout | EV | House Edge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 2.64% | 34:1 | −$0.103 | 10.3% |
| Tall | 2.64% | 34:1 | −$0.104 | 10.4% |
| All | 0.53% | 174:1 | −$0.081 | 8.1% |
Despite looking similar, the All bet has a lower house edge than Small or Tall individually — the payout is generous enough to partially compensate for the lower win probability. That said, all three are still poor bets compared to the Pass Line.
The hardest numbers to hit are 2 and 12 (only 1 way each on 36), followed by 3 and 11 (2 ways each). In a typical roll sequence before a 7, these extremes often go unvisited:
| Number | Ways to Roll | P(Appears Before 7) |
|---|---|---|
| 2 or 12 | 1 | 14.3% |
| 3 or 11 | 2 | 25.0% |
| 4 or 10 | 3 | 33.3% |
| 5 or 9 | 4 | 40.0% |
| 6 or 8 | 5 | 45.5% |
Completing Small requires all five of 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to appear — the 2 alone has only a 14.3% chance of showing before a 7, which is why Small wins only about 2.6% of rounds.
The simulation tracks 3 units wagered per round ($3 total). Each round runs until a 7 ends it, resolving all three bets. Notice the long losing streaks punctuated by occasional wins — this is the nature of all low-probability bonus bets.
All/Tall/Small is entertainment, not strategy. The house edge is 8–10%, roughly 6–7× worse than a Pass Line bet. The only reasonable use case is a small fun bet when you're already winning and want to add excitement to a shooter who's rolling lots of numbers.
Don't size up mid-roll. Some players add to All/Tall/Small when they see several numbers already completed. This doesn't improve your odds — the remaining numbers are just as hard to hit, and you're now wagering more on a negative-EV bet.
