not being dealt an ace 27 hands in a row in Omaha. I seriously just did this, is the chance anywhere near as low as I think it is? if you're wondering why I noticed it was because i was playing o8

chance of not being dealt an ace: C(48,4)/c(52,4)
Chance of that happening 27 times in a row: 0.7187^27 = 0.000134
= 1 in 7463

So, fairly rare.
