once the cards are shuffled, arent the odds just the same
what im asking is this: the cards are shuffled, i get AA..
the next hand is dealt, the odds of getting AA AGAIN are just the same, previous hands dealt have no influence on the next deal.. if i shuffle the deck, and take the top card, say its A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], the odds of that happening are 1 in 52.. i shuffle again, the odds of getting the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] are again 1 in 52, am i correct in this thinking? |

thread should have ended here [/ QUOTE ] Right. No sense trying to help people learn or understand why ... nobody wants to hear that crap. Actually I think the thread has only one useless post – yours. |

I believe the poster already knew why and just wanted to be reassured. It does not help to say random = random.

Re: once the cards are shuffled, arent the odds just the same
noway dood, the chances of getting the same card get much smaller the second time. You see, the deck holds a sort of unconscious memory and reduces your chances of getting the same card. The odds are reduced by an amount proportional to the suit of the card.
For spade cards the odds become 1/53 For hearts, 1/54 For diamonds, 1/55 and this is the interesting part: for clubs, there is only a 1% chance of picking up the same card... This is the same problem as the roulette problem. Let's assume there is no 0 or 00... what are the chances of the ball landing on red? 50%... that's right... Now let's assume the ball has landed on red 5 times in a row, what are the chances that it lands on red again. the answer is 40% If the ball lands on red 10 times in a row, now the probability of it landing on red again is 20%!! It is by observing these patterns that roulette professionals can make thousands of dollars every day... |

Very good. Now answer this:
What are the odds you will shuffle the deck and pick the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] twice in a row? |

0%, because once you've removed the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] there is no A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] left in the deck.
