You can get dealt any two cards of the top of the deck 1,326 ways.

First card is one in 52, next card is one in 51. Times both of those together, you get 2,652. Since the cards can come in either order, divide that number by 2 and you get 1,326.

This is right

52*51/2*1 = 1,326

1326 is correct if you qualify suits.

Only 169 strategically different hands: 13 pairs, 78 suited combinations (13x12), and 78 unsuited combinations.
