Default Re: Brain dead need help a sec

Pretty sure it's something like this:

52 card deck, 2 dealt to you, 50 cards remaining.

Possible deals ?? (50*49*48)/(3*2*1) = PD

Cards in a suit: 13
Cards in your hand: 2
Cards left in your suit: 11

You want to be dealt ?? (11*10*9)/(3*2*1) = WD

And I think that leaves you with WD/PD as your chance.

This is my best guess, and it's based on the fact that you can get a flop any of 6 different ways with the same three cards (the cards could be "shuffled" differently). If there's a mistake, someone please help me out.
