A 30 card deck is composed of 10 red, 10 yellow, and 10 blue cards with each color numbered 1-10. If a game uses a 5-card hand what is
the probability of drawing a flush?:::(3*10C5)/30C5 = 0.003
---------------------------------------
The probability of drawing a full house (3 of a kind and 2 of a kind)
Ans: Pick a card type: 10 ways
Pick 3 of that card type: 3C3 = 1
Pick a different card type: 9 ways
Pick 2 of that card: 3C2 = 3 ways
----
# of ways to succeed: (10*1*9*3) = 270 ways
# of 5-card groups: 30C5 = 142506
P(full house) = 270/142506 = 0.00189..
--------------------------------------------
The probability that you do not draw four of a kind.
There are no 4 of a kind
P(draw 4 of a kind) = 0
