chance to draw 7: 4 out of 52
chance to draw 1st queen: 4 out of 51
chance to draw 2nd queen: 3 out of 50
total chance = multiplication of 
\(\frac{4}{52}\) times \(\frac{4}{51}\) times \(\frac{3}{50}\)

\(\frac{2}{5525}\)

pretty miserable change... apox 1 out of 2762, but still much better than any lottery ticket
