1326 possible hands
6 possible AA hands

Odds against getting aces 1320:6 or 220:1. You have a 1 in 221 chance in getting aces, but chances and odds are different.

His Omaha book is worthless. I sold all my Ken Warren books on EBay.

Re: Warren\'s book?
 

IMO Ken Warren's books range from detrimental to useless for building your poker knowledge foundation. If you don't mind studying poker books written in a textbook style I would recommend reading some of the beginning books suggested above then reading the 2+2 books. The 2+2 books contain densely packed information but are no worse than freshman level math books in conceptual difficulty.
