Re: Probability - Getting dealt 3 of the same card in 5 Stud
The number of people being dealt cards will not affect the calculation.
There are 3 jacks left in the deck out of 51 cards total. There are two possibilites: 1) 3 of the next 4 are jacks 2) 2 of the next 4 are jacks There are 48 four-card hands fitting description 1). There are 3*48*47 = 6768 four-card hand fitting description 2). There are nCr(51,4)=249900 possible four-card hands possible given the J already in your hand. Thus the chance you are looking for is: (6768 + 48) / 249900 = .0272 Slighly under 3% gm |
