norrrrrrr


you're out by a factor of approx 1,500 but good effort

you're doing the chances of it happening on 3 specific hands which is very different which is very different from the odds of it happening 3 times in a row as we don't start counting until after it's happened the first time

how many times you flop an ace when you have an ace

if you happen to do it every other day then you should see this ever 13000 years or so

You should have mentioned it was 2 years ago, there was more chance of it happening then. This is credit crunch, not many aces going around.
