Question 994877: In a certain card game, players begin each round with 2 cards in hand, and then draw 5 more over the course of the round. If a player starts a round with 2 hearts, what is the probability that the player will have 5 or more hearts by the end of the round?

We cannot work that without knowing how many other players there are, because
that will determine how many cards that are left to draw from.  The probability
that the other players are holding some hearts must be taken into account because
the probability will be different if the other players are holding different
numbers of hearts.
