Default Odds of same hand in a row?(As,Jc)

Got into this debate at a final table and just want to know the answer. I was delt the exact same hand back to back, Ace of spades,Jack of clubs. What are the actual odds of that happening? [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] since its 54 to 1 for the first wouldnt you then multiply that by 1 out of 52 X 1 out of 51?about 48000 to 1, right?

If you were to say to yourself what is the probability of getting As,Jc on the next two hands it would be:

=1/1326*1/1326 = 1 in 1,758,276

If after getting As,Jc you said to yourself what is the probability of getting that exact hand on the next deal:

=1/1326 = .000754 = 1 in 1326 hands

Thanx Cobra, I guess I need to keep it simple stupid. That was way to easy and I was over analizing it. I stand corrected AGAI N. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
