One of the players was dealt the 9 through Ace of Spades and the 7th card was the joker. They said he won $152,000....Okay, what are the odds of being dealt these 7 cards?

It's late and I'm getting tired but I'll take a stab at it. I'm assuming that Pai Gow is played with a 53 card deck.
53X52X51X50X49X48X47 divided by 7X6X5X4X3X2X1 equals 154,142,080. That's the chances of being dealt the 9 through Ace of Spades with the Joker. There are four suits so the chances of being dealt a suited 9 though Ace with the Joker is 38,535,770.
Hopefully, I did the math right. If he doesn't document his play the IRS will get the biggest tip, around $43,000.
