You deal 5 cards from a well-shuffled full deck. (note that there are 52 cards in a full deck and among these, there are exactly 4 aces and 4 kings (likewise 4 of each of the 13 ranks) in the full deck) a) What is the probability that you get exactly 3 aces among the 5 cards? b) What is the probability that you get exactly 2 kings among the 5 cards? c) What is the probability that you get exactly 3 aces and 2 kings among the 5 cards? (note that this counts as a “full house” in poker and is a VERY nice hand to obtain!) d) Why is your answer to part c) not just the product of the answer to part a) times the answer to part b) ? e) A general “full house” in poker is 3 of one rank and 2 in another (eg, 3 aces and 2 fives, or 3 eights and 2 threes, etc…) What is the probability of dealing a full house among the 5 cards?
