Side note, just out of curiosity...what's the probability in Hold 'Em of someone making Quad Aces against Quad Kings in the same hand? I'd figure it out for myself but I'm unsure of how to figure out the math.

Well, we need all four Aces in play, and all four Kings. So if I'm right that there's a 4.7% chance of either happening, multiplying those gives .22%... 1 time in 500.

It's actually quite a bit less than that, because we can't have the Aces or Kings split between two hands. Let me get back to you on that tomorrow!
