Well, essentially you could turn it into an enormous tree diagram. The first card matching is obvious. On the second card you have a couple possibilities. If the first card was a 2, then you have 3/51. If it wasn't a 2, then you have 4/51. This problem is much more complex than I had originally thought. Although I'll admit, I didn't really think about it prior to posting it. It's been a while since I've messed with Mathematica, but I'd imagine it would be really useful here.
