    Calculate the odds

    Hi Folks!

    This is not specifically an Excel question but if I knew the equation I would do it in Excel!

    My local casino has a game of 3 card poker. 52 cards in the deck.

    If you draw A K Q of spades you win the progressive jackpot if you wager on it (currently worth about $30,000).

    My question: what are the odds of drawing the A K Q of spades?

    Edit: I have drawn the A and K before but that almighty Q evades me!
