 It's all good. It's a common misconception.

The thing that's important to learn here is that no matter how cards are dealt (or not dealt) every card that you don't see the face of has an equal likelihood of being any of the remaining cards. So if you're dealt say AK, it's just as likely that the top card in the deck is the Queen of hearts as the last card in the deck being the Queen of hearts, as your third Villain's second card as being the Queen of hearts.
