Same rank same color
Just a quick check to make sure I didn't skip the obvious.
Odds of two aces in the hole being dealt AND being the same color should be a 662-to-1 dog correct? |

Re: Same rank same color
2/1326 is equivalent to 1324:2 which is 662:1 .
Correct . |

Re: Same rank same color
There seems to be a missing digit (even after correcting from fraction to odds) for 2/1326 --> 1324:2
How did you arrive to that number? |

Re: Same rank same color
This means that there are two red aces or two black aces .
1326 comes from 52c2=52*51/2=1326 . In other words , there are 1326 different hands . Two of the pairs are monotone aces .This means that 1324 pairs of hands are non- monotone aces . The odds against flopping monotone aces must be 1324:2 or equivalently dividing top and bottom by two we get 662:1 . ie , the probability you roll a 1 from a 6 sided die is 1/6 . The odds against rolling a 1 are 5:1 . This means that five numbers are not 1's and one number is a 1 . Also , the odds in favor must be 1:5 which is just the exact opposite . 1/6 = odds against of (6-1):1 In general p/(p+q) is equivalent to odds against of (p+q-p) or q . Or odds in favor of p:q . |

Re: Same rank same color
Alright I see now.
I went about it by: (4/52)x(1/51) |
