To finish the story, playing in my girlfriends family christmas game, $40 buy in dealers choice and the game is 5 card draw. I'm ahead about $60 at this point when I am dealt 9-9, and draw 3 , I recieve 2-9-2 .There is 1 player who has gone to the bathroom and I say just fold him down , I'll win the hand, when her uncle says " I'm gonna win this one " , He's holding 3 cards in his hand and is drawing 2. He then asks if I want to make a side bet on who will win the hand for $100. Clearly he has a big set, and I take him up on the offer assuming I am about %90. He draws two and ends up with 10-10-10-10-K . Probably the best hand of 5 card I've ever played.

Seems rigged to me. You ever see Honeymoon In Vegas - it might be before your time, but there is a great line in that movie where Nicolas Cage says, "Do you know what a straight flush is? It's like... unbeatable" Sarah Jessica responds with, "Like unbeatable is not unbeatable" And cages awesome response (and the tone is great), "I KNOW THAT NOW!"Me thinks you were played just like in that movie.
