Why The Default Is 16
AK47 commonly treats every Ace, King, Four and Seven as wild. Four ranks across four suits create 16 physical wild cards.
With 36 ordinary cards left, the chance of receiving no wild is C(36,3) / C(52,3), or about 32.31%. Therefore, the chance of at least one wild is about 67.69%.
This calculation does not decide hand strength. House rules may limit how a wild card is used, and some tables use a different AK47 definition.
