Wow that is sick!

I wonder what the odds of haviong the same starting hand like that is?

EvilPingu

I don't know the odds of them both having the same starting hand (and I'm too lazy to work it out myself), however, I was surprised to find out that the pot is only split about 92% of the time in that hand, and the guy with the spades draw is actually 51/49 favourite because he's got one of the opponents' diamonds.
