If B gets club first in 3rd trial, then we get:
1st trial: A doesn't get club, B doesn't get club
2nd trial: A doesn't get club, B doesn't get club
3rd trial: A doesn't get club, B gets club

Without replacement:
Deck starts with 39 non-clubs and 13 clubs
Prob = (39/52) (38/51) (37/50) (36/49) (35/48) (13/47) = 0.061275 = 6.13%
