Default Omaha Starting Hand Probability

What is the probability that AAxx (exactly two aces) will be dealt out to you as a starting hand?

I got close to 19:1. Here's my math:
52C4 = 270725 total starting hands
4C2 = 6 ways to get AA
6 * 48 (assuming AA dealt out to you already and no other A is wanted) * 47 = 13536 AAxx hands
13536/270725 = ~.05 = ~19:1 odds

Did I do this right?
