Or, as a shortcut, maybe look into chisq.test(..., simulate.p.value=TRUE).

Notice that both use hypergeometric-type sampling. One could also consider 
sampling with rmultinom (either of order 6, twice of order three, or thrice of 
order 2), or even rpois, assuming a Poisson distribution of the total count.
