The # of black cards in 1st deck will always be the same as the # of red cards in 2nd deck, i.e. for every single time when you repeat 1000 times. Here is the reason,

  • Among 52 poker cards (excluding jokers), there are 26 red cards and 26 black cards
  • For two equal decks (26 cards each), asssume the 1st deck has 13 black cards, and it is quite clear there will be 13 red cards in 2nd deck
  • Think further, if you ADD some number of black cards to 1st deck, you will have to remove that number of red cards from 1st deck, i.e. ADD those red cards to 2nd deck, thus the # of black cards in 1st deck is still the same as the # of red cards in 2nd deck;
  • Similarly, if you REMOVE some number of black cards from 1st deck, you will have to add that number of red cards to 1st deck, i.e. REMOVE those red cards from 2nd deck, thus the # of black cards in 1st deck is still the same as the # of red cards in 2nd deck;
