If you do know what card is in your hand, and it isn't the ace of spades, then the chances that the one remaining card is are 52/52.

The canard in all of these accounts lies in the knowing serial discounting. You no longer have a valid chained probability equation. They are all separate, unconnected scenarios.

Oops. I mean, um, multiple vibrators are good.
