Daniel Alaei Comes Up Short

After Daniel Alaei and Isaac Baron both limped in preflop, the player on the button raised to 2,700. Alaei called while Baron folded, and two players saw the flop of {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}.

Alaei moved all in for 6,500 and got the call.

Alaei: {A-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Button: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{A-Spades}

Neither the {J-Diamonds} nor the {10-Spades} completed Alaei's straight and his opponent's trip 6s held up to take the pot.
