Default Card removal question

Hey,

When calculating an OPP's range combinations, do you remove cards for any exposed cards, whether they are in your hand or on the board?

For example, the board is AK4. You hold AT. If you wanted to calculate his combinations of, let's say, AQ (suited or offsuit), would you remove 4 for both the card on the board and the card in your hand (leaving 8 combinations of AQ)? AK would be a removal of 12 combinations?

Thanks.

The funny thing is, if an Ace on on the flop, the chance of the villain having an ace is 5% more likely.

But seriously in answer to your question, if the Ace of hearts is in your hand you should still include it as a possibility in your villains range. Same goes for cards on the flop.

This is factual.

Weird fact also, this is directly from the official poker rule book:

"When any given player is dealt KK, the dealer must alter the deck to include 6 more aces, bringing the total number of aces in the deck to 10. All other Kings are removed, as well as all Qs and Js to prevent the K from hitting a straight, as it is REQUIRED for the dealer to put an ace on the board, with another paired card (E.G. A-4-4 or 10-A-10)"
