it's one out of 20,825 to deal the 1st 4 cards as 4 of a kind (1/1 x 3/51 x 2/50 x 1/49). if you don't know how to calculate this you probably shouldn't be playing poker. a little strange but hardly the craziest thing to ever happen. a better question is how can it be a fun/fair game if wives are involved? i have never liked playing poker where 2 or more people at the table have essentially the same financial interest.

In my world financial interests don't come into play when everyone at the table is getting drunk and having fun on a Friday night after the kids go to bed. Thanks for letting me know what your cynical parameters of playing cards are though.
