Default Re: Odds of repeat final table.

[ QUOTE ]
Need a little help here from you guys with a hypothetical question.

Say 5 friends all play in a 10 tournament series. Each tournament has 200 players. All 200 players have equal ability. What is probability of any 2 of the 5 making a final table(top ten)? What is probability of any combination of 2 making 2 or more final tables?

How would you start to calculate this probablility?

There are 2 ways to interpret this question. Do you mean that 2 players make the same final table, or can they make 2 different final tables?
