 Numbers are pretty dry for most of us – except for some rare mathematics nerds – but a showing a few of them might help when facing a bad run of "unplayable" pocket cards.

 A poker deck usually has 52 cards (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, T, J, Q, K, A with 4 colours each).

Dealt two cards there are 1326 (52*51/2) combinations.
