I think I am missing something fairly simple here, but please help me out:
The probably of getting a specific pair (say, AA) is 221-1.
However, after 5,000 hands, I have been dealt each specific pair between 40 and 65 times. For example, I had AA 41 times. This is about twice what I would expect if it was 221-1 against getting AA.
(That is to say, 5000/221 = 22)
What very simple thing am I missing?
