Math Lesson
I explain how the number of permutations of each hand in my page on Dazzling Dice, except the two pair, which doesn't pay in that game.
In a two pair, there are combin(6,2)=15 possible ways to choose two ranks out of five for the two pair. Then there are four ways left to choose the rank of the singleton. Then there are combin(5,2)=10 ways to choose the positions of the first pair. Then there are combin(3,2)=3 ways to choose the positions of the second pair. Thus, the total number of permutations for a two pair are 15×4×10×3 = 1,800.
