Player 1 is holding 5 cards, Player 2 is dealt five cards from the same deck. Probabilities are:

1.card of player two matches one of the five cards of player 1: 15/47

2.card...:12/46

3.card...:9/45

4.card...:6/44

5.card...:3/43

->Probability of 2 players having the same cards is all probabilities multiplied:

81/511313 or 0.000158416!

Why do so many people gamble and the probability of winning is very low?

People often look at the expected value of the outcome rather than only the winning probability. So with bigger prizes, the probability of winning can be lower and still remain attractive. Many people experience a buzz out of gambling and it can be very addictive. Also, there are some games where the probability of winning can be increased - legally. A good poker player, for example can expect to win at a table full of less expert players.


What is the experimental probability her next stroke will be a hole-in-one?

If she has not yet played the next stroke, there can be no experimental probability.
