    I don't think so.
    AQ is the same hand as QA so the odds are significantly lower than this ... but still very high!  :-)

    For this (i.e. 4 players of 6 seated to have the same hand pre-flop) to happen with AQ specifically, I'd say that the odds are:

    8/52 * 4/51 * 6/50 * 3/49 * 4/48 * 2/47 * 2/46 * 1/45 * 360
    This is about  9 million to 1.

    (As always, I'm happy to be corrected).

    Wow, thank you mere. MrWh1te was the player after the hand asking what the odds where, hopefully he will see this thread. Thank you again for taking the time to work this out :)

    Wow, that IS a rare one!

    I saw a weird one at DTD the other week.

    TWO players got it all-in, both had A-Q.

    The Flop came K-J-T, so both of them flopped the nuts.

    The Turn was an A, the River was a Q, so the Board ran out A-K-Q-J-T - so both players were, in effect, playing the Board.

    Oops. Well spotted. I should have looked at the Hand History more closely rather than following on from the initial response.
    OK, the odds of 3 people having AQ are:

    8/52 * 4/51 * 6/50 * 3/49 * 4/48 * 2/47 * 120
    This is about 26,507 to 1.
