What're the odds on getting pocket AA 3 times in a row?

Does anyone know? Cos I got it the other day. In a £5dym depressingly enough. But I got paid of to a degree every time so happy days I suppose.

Next dym I played I had AA with two pre-flop all-ins against me and had to call even though I knew I was no longer fav. Lost to both of them, QQ rivered a set and JT somehow got a straight.

I hate poker, I love poker.

But, like Doyle says, AA wins small pots and loses big pots.

I kinda like them though. Almost as much as 6-9 suited.

    I read somewhere it is 1 in 10,793,308 but I'm sure Merenovice will be along soon to confirm or deny this.

    The odds of being dealt AA is:
    4/52*3/51 which is 220/1.

    If having been dealt AA, you wanted the odds of being dealt AA in the next two hands, this would be:
    4/52*3/51*4/52*3/51 which is 48,840 to 1.

    If you said, what are the odds of me being dealt AA in the next three hands, this would be:
    4/52*3/51*4/52*3/51*4/52*3/51 which is 10,793,860 to 1.

    I generally try to show how these numbers are worked out.
    It's part of my educational remit.  :-)))
