    Thank you for the explanation. Spent and embarrassing amount of time looking at this problem with no idea what to do.

      It’s not an easy problem, so it’s normal to find it a challenge.

    Very well explained. thinking through the problem is excellent. The explanation of the last choice of 48 possibilities in both ways is great.

    Thank you, I learned a lot. I was recently trying to get into probability math and this really helped me. Thank you!

    If I have three of a kind... What probability is best.. to get rid of one card or two cards?

    How can I calculate the probability of getting 4 kings when choosing 13 cards?

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Assuming order doesn’t matter, it should be (4C4)*(48C9)/(52C13)

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In case your calc freezes up, this should reduce to 13*12*11*10/(52*51*50*49) double check this though bc right now I don’t have a proper pencil and paper

      @@Megaheropap think about the fact that the 4 kings is a special case of the four of a kind (if we were choosing 5 cards). There would be 13 of these hands. That’s how you get from four kings to a generic four of a kind

    Does this apply to poker? Because I got 4 cards with the same picture.

      It's supposed to be for of a kind Wright?

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, this is the calculation for the probability of randomly selecting 5 cards from a shuffled deck and choosing a four of a kind. This is not that same as the probability of getting four of a kind in the normal play of a game of poker because you get to swap out cards even in a single hand of poker, let alone in a full game with several hands.
