 In a game of Texas Hold’em, suppose your hole cards are K♥ K♣.  Your opponent’s hole cards are K♦ K♠.  What is the probability you flop a full house?  (Note:  You need the flop to be 3 cards of the same value).  

Expert Solution
Step 1

As all 4 kings has been dealt, so we have now 12 kinds of card which is total 48 cards

For a full house, we need 3 cards of a same kind and other 2 of a different same kind.

As we already have 2 of a one same kind and can't have more kings dealt, so here if 3 cards of any 12 kinds are dealt, we will have a full house.
