Re: Another Tack on the Royal Flush
Both presented solutions so far have basically been the probability that any one person will get a royal times the number of players at the table (and accounting for the few cases where the royal is on the board).
But this can't be correct, becasue all opponents share the community cards. In order for the presented solutions to be correct, we would have to effectively be dealing 7 cards to one player, scooping them up and dealing 7 more cards to the next player, etc.
I'll post what I think is the correct answer later, but I'd like additional input, please.
Anyone?
