        The solution in the post by @addingup is not precisely correct.

        For correct solution, see my post below.



<pre>
P = P(J, then 3) + P(3, then J) = {{{(4/52)*(4/51)}}} + {{{(4/52)*(4/51)}}} = {{{(8/52)*(4/51)}}} = 0.012066365.


<U>ANSWER</U>.  The probability is about  0.0121, or 1.21%.
</pre>

Solved correctly.
