I would like to know what is the probability of obtaining a pair of queen of hearts in 4 and 6 decks?
Sorry for my English, I translated everything with the google translator.

CarlosVillar,

A 4 deck shoe contains 4 QH's and a total of 52*4=208 cards. That means that the probability that any two random cards are QH's is given by

(4/208)*(3/207) = 0.0002787..., or 1 in 3588.

Since you posted both this question and another about 2-card 20's, you might find the following webpage helpful:

Hope this helps!
