Default Re: Odds of 3 in a row?

to ruin it for everyone. three in a row of something happens regularly in life. we only notice sometimes after twice, but mostly after the third time. so the prob. is one of it happening. its just a matter of where it happens.its always most memorable with aces in poker. and there we start from twice as we get aces once or twice a session. so the chances of getting aces twice in a row is the same as getting them the next hand as we only look for the event after it happens first. can everyone figure out the prob. of getting aces on the next hand. i hope so.
