		There are 123,552 possible two pair hands, so the odds of getting two pair given a five card hand are 3967:198 or approximately 20:1.

		two pair is less likely to occur than one pair, so two pair is a higher-ranked hand), but when two hands of the same rank collide, the system that breaks the tie is arbitrary and often does not reward the better hand.
		When two flushes are shown, the one with the higher card wins, but a better system would be to look at the lowest card from each flush and give the victory to the hand with the higher low card (confused yet?).
		Similarly, for two hands with two pair each, the hand with the better low pair should win, and if both have the same low pair, then the hand with the higher high pair would win.

		Even if two JANGmeisters are paired together (and the rest of the team will know when they are) the resulting code will still be better than if either went off on their own.
		With pair programming, it is easier to identify these issues because everyone works with everyone else (switch partners often facilitates knowledge transfer), and the team knows who is not pulling their weight.
		Pair programming seems novel because for the past decade or two we've been tucking programmers away in cubicles and allowing them to avoid WorkingTogether.
