Default How hard do you argue against yourself?

$2/$4 B&M Sunday. House rules are NASTY:
BB = SB = $2
Bonus drop $1 from every pot, right from the antes
House rake $3 taken as soon as pot reaches $10

I've got Q9s in BB, five see a flop of QJ6. I bet, all call.
Turn: J. I bet, all call.
River: 9. I bet, all call.

Everybody turns over junk, but the player on my right has Q3. I say "chop." HE says "no, you're the only one with two pair." The DEALER pushes forward the Q96, pulls my Q9 over, and shows everybody my "winning" two pair. I'm staring at the JJ on the board, but nobody says a word. The dealer pushes the stack of chips to me....

Do you keep fighting to give someone else half of your pot, or do you accept the table-wide mistake and move on with your life?
