Default Was wondering if I could get the odds on this...

I got dealt these first 5 hands hands in order on a $10 SNG:

88,AA,QQ,KK,22

What are the odds of getting a PP 5 times in a row? This must be a stock answer for some probability majors here, but I'm just curious

That would be the probability of getting a pocket pair (1/17) to the fifth power: .00007% which is 1,428,570 to 1 odds.
