    It depends how you look at it, really.

    The odds that your hand will be the same as your previous hand are 2/52 * 1/51 which is 1,325/1.

    However, if you said what are the odds that I'm going to get Ts7s in each of the next two hands then the odds would be 1,758,275/1.

    1 in 1326
     
    Not that rare really, at a table of 6 players it will happen to somebody once in every 221 hands on average.

    1/1326 is the odds of having the exact same two face cards again. Because there are 6 different ways of having a pair (ie 8c8d 8c8h 8c8s 8d8h 8d8s 8h8s), the odds of getting the same pocket pair twice in a row is only 1/221 if they can be of any suit.
