I'm calculating (based on every permutation of remaining cards) rather  
than simulating. Hence I only do one run.  I guess I could have  
duplicated the last four lines and saved a few CPU cycles but it runs  
reasonably fast anyway so I didn't bother.

I'm guessing that you used a simulation approach instead. It's  
interesting, and reassuring, that we got the same results.
