Counting

Jack has a collection of 10 pairs of gloves in his wardrobe. Before a business trip, he has to pack his luggage, and he selects 8 gloves, without looking at them. We assume that any set of 8 gloves is equally likely to be chosen. Find the probability that these 8 gloves do not include any matching pair of gloves, that is, that there are no two (left and right) gloves, coming from the same pair.
