If it matters in what order you draw them, then the number of permutations of 52 things taken three at a time is 52! - (52-3)! = 52 * 51 * 50 = 132,600.

If it does not matter in what order you draw them, the usual case, then the number of combinations of 52 things taken 3 at a time is (52! - (52-3)!) / 3! = 52 * 51 * 50 / 3 / 2 / 1 = 22,100.
