Each card has equal probability to end uop in the hand of the different players. So, for each ace you have 4 equaly likely choices for the players they will end up at, there are thus 4^4 = 2^8 ways the aces can end up in the hands of the players.
There are 4! ways to distribute the four aces over the 4 persons such that each person gets one ace. The probability of this happening is thus:
4!/2^8 = 3/2^5 = 3/32
In the card game bridge, each of 4 players is dealt a hand of 13 of the 52 cards. What is the probability that each player receives exactly one Ace?
