In the card game Hearts, each of the cards from the heart suit is worth 1 point. (There are 13 such cards in a standard 52-card deck.) If a single card is drawn form the deck, what is the expected value of the number of points it is worth? What is the expected number of points among 12 cards randomly drawn from the deck, without replacement? In the "Black Lady" variant, there is an additional rule: the queen of spades is worth 13 points. In this variant, what is the expected number of points among 12 cards randomly drawn from the deck, without replacement?
