Combination of 52 things taken 2 at a time is (52 x 51)/(2 x 1)=1326. This is the total possible outcomes when drawing two cards from a deck. Combination of 4 things taken 2 at a time is (4 x 3)/(2 x 1) = 6. This is the total possible combinations of two kings (Heart/Diamond, Heart/Spade, Heart/Club, Diamond/Spade, Diamond/Club, Spade/Club). The probability, then, is 6 out of 1326, or 1/221.
