This relates to Texas Holdem Poker preflop

AA v K10o = win 86.18% lose 13.44% tie 0.38%

AA v 44 = win 80.58% lose 19.03% tie 0.39%

AA v AJo = win 91.87% lose 6.72% tie 1.40%

My question is, what are the chances of losing with AA 3x in a row to these hands?

Take each of the losing %'s and multiply them together.

I got ~1.7187%

I have done that already and that seems almost impossible to happen, that is why I'm not sure if I did the calculation correctly.

Roughly 17 out of every 10,000 times you get those hands against each other will the aces lose every time.

Wow, that is either REALLY bad luck or something wrong with a certain poker websites statistics.
