What are the odds of the same opponent getting AA vs your KK 2 times in 40 hands? 1st time I got lucky and the board split us with a straight. 2nd time, I was pretty surprised that the same opponent had AA again.

If I recall correctly, there's approximately a 36 to 1 chance of someone holding pocket aces when you're dealt kings. Problem is, I can't recall if that's for a 6 man or 10 man table.
I'm sure it's simple math from there to figure out what the odds are of it happening twice, but I only have the poker math I need memorized in my head. I find this stuff interesting but math is my weak suit, so I can't help any further.
The odds can be very surprising sometimes. Unbelievable. I saw a video of the Aussie Millions cash game invitational and you know what? Tony G flopped a Royal Flush
