Live poker is rigged (But soooo awesome!)

[Robbie Robb]

Monthly home game went off tonight. After the league event we played a 5 person $5 SNG. Third or fourth hand in I'm dealt TT in the SB. Blinds are 25/50. UTG raises to 200. CO calls. Button raises to 800. I jam. BB (Nikita) calls. UTG folds. CO & Button both call.

CO flips 8x8x
Button flips KKx
Nikki holds AK
UTG (who folded) flips 33

Flop comes 78J
Turn is something useless like 5 I think
River: 9

I didn't even see my hand at first. I saw that button had the king high flush and thought that was good then someone was "No, Rob has the straight flush!"

One hand we went from 5 players to heads-up. That went back and forth for a while until we finally got it all in on AQx flop. I held top 2 and he had the diamond flush draw. Fortunately my hand held and I scooped the whole $15!!! The dealer continued to rabbit hunt and the other guy FINALLY caught his flush at about 11th street or something like that. Of course by then I would have ended up with queens full...
