Please can you tell me the odds to be dealt a pocket AKs and also the odds to be dealt a pocket AKo?
I've tried to work it out but my maths is not too good.

AKs .3%
AKo .9%

Previous answer is right. Here are the calcs:

There are 1326 possible starting hands (52*51)/2.

Of these, there are 16 which are AK and of those 16, 4 are suited.

So AK (any) is 16/1326 = 1.2%
AK (offsuit) is 12/1326 = 0.9%
AK (suited) is 4/1326 = 0.3%
