If one is placing bets on both The Banker natural nine and The Banker natural eight, perhaps these facts should be considered. However, for a typical N, say ^ = 40, simultaneous bets on both natural nine and natural eight are warranted only about a quarter of the time that bets on at least one natural are called for. Further, in the case of simultaneous bets, the amounts bet on each are generally rather different, so that one of them might be thought of as dominant. Therefore we do not feel that increased complication of the strategy is justified.
