A caller on Coast to Coast was just saying that by hadji2006-09-07 22:58:41
  just below 50%, I'd guess. (n/t) by shminux2006-09-07 23:06:36
    dead-on 50% actually by magixtechnica2006-09-07 23:10:59
      Huh. by hadji2006-09-07 23:13:35
        *I* am anyway. I forget the exact calculation by magixtechnica2006-09-07 23:17:14
          then start rethinking by shminux2006-09-07 23:21:41
            that only applies if there is a zeroth ace by magixtechnica 2006-09-07 23:24:48
the chance on drawing zero aces is not the same as having a zeroth ace. You are counting as if there were 5 aces. 4 aces with the possibility of drawing none is not the same thing.

5 possibilities to hit randomly in a deck is more of a computerized random function. Having 4 objects in a set of 52, the chances of having at least 2 in any half set is 50%
