Default Re: AK against AA or KK

The reason you cannot multiply by 9*2 is because the prob. of someone being dealt AA or KK is not independent of what the rest of the table is holding. If none of the 8 other players at the table has an A or a K, the prob of the 10th person holding AA or KK is much higher (2*(3/34)*(2/33)).
