What is the probability of being dealt the same cards 3 hands straight?
The other night playing hold'em, I saw two red jacks in the hole on three straight hands.
Chances of being dealt a pocket pair: 220/1
Ways of making a pocket pair: 6
Ways of making a specific pocket pair: 1320/1
Chances of this happening three straight hands: 1320 X 1320 X 1320
Chances of being dealt both red jacks on three straight hands: 2299968000/1
Is this correct?
