Default Re: AA cracked twice in one hand--how bad is this beat?

Are you sure the possible hands for this board is 46 nCr 5, or 1370754? You know that a K and 8 must be present w/o any ace, therefore 2 cards are already on the board (the K and 8) and the other 4 aces are removed as well, leaving only a randomized 3 card draw from a deck of 42 cards (taking into account that 3 K's, 3 8's and 4 aces are already used).

I'm not the best at these calculations just yet, but I think the total possible hands would be 42 nCr 3, or 11480.

Please confirm
