AA two hands in a row - odds?

Postby AceLosesKing » Sun Jun 07, 2009 2:59 am

Just happened to me at my ring game table.

A cookie to the first math nerd to give me the answer.

If you're name is Aaron, the odds of that occurring is ... every other day.

this ones easy.

odds of getting aces 1/220 (as we know)

so odds of getting aces is 1/220 x 1/220 = 1/48400

So pretty long odds.

had this once in an NPL game, 2 hands in a row. I had just become staff then, I'm sitting on 12000 just before 2nd break.

All in pre against QQ, he trips on the river. Lose 5500.

Next hand, all in pre against JJ, I flop a set and he (different player) runner runners a straight. Knocks me out.



Sooooooooooooooo...

If the odds on gettings Aces twice in a row is 1 in 48400, what's the odds in getting Aces twice in a row, only to get cracked both times by an underpair (assuming same suits to make it easier)?

Now that answer deserves a cookie.

Sorry, but that's like diving by zero. The internet would break.

I've had ducks 3 in a row before. mind you, this was paradise, so the 2nd time I might have been seeing double?
