not a blackjack related question. more of programming.

Anyone know of any calculator/formula/program that can calculate this question?

Question: The dealer has an ACE. What's the chances of the dealer getting a 18 if 3 aces and 5 tens are out from the deck.

This question may look simple but to design an algorithm to solve this question is a very difficult task. Ask those blackjack software designers if they ever attemptted to program such a program. :)

CV Data will do it, I think, and I'm dying to know the results of that sim - I've often wondered about that one myself! zg

Using the online calculator mentioned in above post, it shows a .1513 (15.1%) probability of an 18, given the above cards are out of the deck. The dealer busting is only .1011.
