The chances someone gets dealt aces preflop at a 10 player table (only one person gets them):
2*10=20-->number of cards dealt out preflop 52-20=32-->number of cards not dealt C(32,2)=561-->total number of 2 card hands that weren't dealt [C(10,1)*C(4,2)*C(28,0)]/561=0.10695 0.10695*100=10.695% one person gets dealt aces preflop at a 10 handed table. Now this seems too high; what did I do wrong? |

it should be 10 * C(4,2) / c(52,2) = minus a miniscule factor accounting for multiple rockets... 4.5 %

Or you can just say 10/221 which gets you 4.5 % also and is close enough for gummint work.

If my A.M. inclusion/exclusion principle is correct, to meet your condition that only one person has A-A:
C(10,1) * C(4,2)/C(52,2) - C(10,2) * C(4,4)/C(52,4) = 4.5083% as opposed to 4.5249% |

Can you explain why it would be 4.5083% opposed to 4.5249%
There are 1326 possible hand combinations with AA making up 6 of them. 6/1326 = .0045249 * ten seats = 4.5249% |

Because of the "(only one person gets them)" clause. If more than one person gets them, it's counted twice.

So you are saying that with all the different permutations of the 1326 hands dealt to 10 people, whenever AA comes up twice within the 10 hands you count it TWICE towards the % of AA coming up?
That does not make mathematical sense. Once the condition (AA) is met you do not look for more satisfied conditions within the range (that set of 10 hands). You are inflating the results. |

That does not make mathematical sense [/ QUOTE ] I agree, that's why I fixed your calculation. [ QUOTE ] You are inflating the results [/ QUOTE ] No, I'm deflating them, from your inflated figure. Edit: And actually, this doesn't even factor in the fact that you want only hands where one player has them, it just removes the double counting of the times when two people have A-A. |
