Angelakis Cracks Aces

There was approximately 2,500 chips in the pot when the flop came down {7-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {3-Diamonds}. Con Angelakis checked from the small blind and the big blind moved all in for 7,500. Daniel Mountt got out of the way and then Angelakis made the call.

Showdown:
Angelakis: {5-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs}

The turn was the {4-Clubs} and the river the {6-Spades}. The all-in player slapped his hands together and yelled "Yes!" as he thought he won the hand, but the table informed him that Angelakis flopped the straight. The all-in player shook his head and then exited to the rail while Angelakis began stacking his new stack of 32,000 chips.
