"Message in a Scrabble Game"



I was playing a solitaire on-line Scrabble game a few days ago and got a couple of very interesting "bingos" back-to-back.  A bingo is when you can use all seven letters you are dealt to form one word and it is worth an extra 50 points.  It was interesting when I could easily see that the first bingo could be sorted to spell the word "warhead".  A few minutes later I got another bingo and to my amazement, this one spelled "rapture".  What are the odds that the computer game would deal me those particular sets of letters to spell those two words, one right after the other?
