Let's see if I remember basic probabilities.... Since order doesn't matter (ie KsAh3c2d is the same as 2d3cKsAh), I think the answer should be:

52! / (4!(52-4)!) = 270725

this wouldn't take into account that As2sAc2c is basically equivalent to Ah2hAd2d though...

But it's been awhile, so I'm not positive...

Yes, you're right on the number, but no you're wrong on the suits. There are 52*51*50*49/(4*3*2) different 4 card hands. Ah2hAc2c and As2sAd2d are different hands under this system.
