The chances are 12 out of 13 that you will not get an ace on the first draw.

The probability is 0 if you pick the the card from one end of a mint pack (2 of clubs) and 1 if you pick it from the other end (A spades). Also, if you pick 49 cards without replacement, the probability is 1. So, the answer depends on how many cards are drawn, and whether or not they are drawn from a well shuffled pack. The probability of getting an ace when one card is randomly picked from a pack is 4/52 = 1/13.

There is only one ace of hearts, but there is also an ace of clubs, an ace of diamonds and an ace of spades.
In a standard deck of 52 playing cards, there are 4 aces. Thus, the probability of not pulling an ace in a single draw is the number of non-ace cards (48) divided by the total number of cards (52). This gives a probability of 48/52, which simplifies to 12/13. Therefore, there is approximately a 92.3% chance of not pulling an ace from the deck.
