Heads up play against my 8 yr old daughter in a game of go fish. She is first to act, one by one she ask's me for a card until she had all my cards. We actually had the exact same cards in our hands. She takes me out and i didn't even get to act.

What are the odds of two people starting with 10 cards and both having identical hands? My math skills are not good enough to even attempt this problem.
