Q8a: 168.568.545.600 to 1

Q8b:
Our first case: first to fourth player hit AKs

Prob. first player to hit an Ace (any suit): 4/52
Prob. first player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/51

Prob. second player to hit an Ace (any suit): 3/50
Prob. second player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/49

Prob. third player to hit an Ace (any suit): 2/48
Prob. third player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/47

Prob. fourth player to hit an Ace (only one on deck): 1/46
Prob. fourth player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/45

Prob. fifth player to hit any card except A or K: 44/44
Prob. fifth player to hit any card except A or K: 43/43

Prob. sixth player to hit any card except A or K: 42/42
Prob. sixth player to hit any card except A or K: 41/41

A=(4*3*2*44*43*42*41)/(52*51*50*49*48*47*46*45*44*43*42*41)
A=(4*3*2)/(52*51*50*49*48*47*46*45)

Another case: Lets say that 1st, 3th, 4th, and 6th players hit AKs

Prob. first player to hit an Ace (any suit): 4/52
Prob. first player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/51

Prob. second player to hit any card except A or K:: 44/50
Prob. second player to hit any card except A or K:: 43/49

Prob. third player to hit an Ace (any suit): 3/48
Prob. third player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/47

Prob. fourth player to hit an Ace (only one on deck): 2/46
Prob. fourth player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/45

Prob. fifth player to hit any card except A or K: 42/44
Prob. fifth player to hit any card except A or K: 41/43

Prob. sixth player to hit an Ace (only one on deck): 1/46
Prob. sixth player to hit a K (same suit than Ace): 1/45

A=(4*3*2*44*43*42*41)/(52*51*50*49*48*47*46*45*44*43*42*41)
A=(4*3*2)/(52*51*50*49*48*47*46*45)
(the same number)

The 4 players could be sitted in any position in a six seat holdem table, so we need to multiply this number (A) and the possible combinations:
( C(n,x) = n! / (n - x)! x! .... (n >= x ) )

X=A*C(6,4)=A*(6!/4!(6-4)!)=A*15

X=(15*4*3*2)/52*51*50*49*48*47*46*45)=1/(26*51*25*49*48*47*46) = 1/168.568.545.600
