What are the odds of a no-limit holdem flop containing only face cards (J,Q,K) ?

(12/52)*(11/51)*(10/50) = .01

Edit: Actually 1320/132600 or 0.009955

I get .9955%, or about 1 hand in 100. I could be wrong (not a math guy). Of course those odds are affected in real life by how many face cards are in people's hands, which are dealt before the flop. This assumes nobody has a face card, including you.

Edit: Same answer as Aye, just shown differently. I feel better now. :)
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.
