Impossible odds

Tonight I played in a poker game in which a guy i know went all-in 10 times in a span of 30 to 35 hands. He survived every all-in. Shocked so my question is, What are the approximate odds for surviving 10 all-in bets.

Depends on the cards.

can't be calculated, this would even be nearly impossible if it was conditional probability because you'd have to know the opponent's holdings as well.

Based on only having one player call his all-in each time and them having random hands he has a .09765625% chance of surviving 10 consecutive all-ins.

Well, what really happened was that 9 out of the 10 times he went all-in he was called by two people and the other time he was just called by one person. What would the odds be given this extra information?

A number much smaller than the one I previously posted.
