Corkins Triples Up

Hoyt Corkins was all in and had two callers on a {4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}{9-Spades}{A-Hearts} board. We don't know when he managed to get all in, but we can assume it was early in the hand because he was dangerously short stacked. Corkins showed {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} for trip aces. Both his opponents mucked, but one claimed to have flopped two pair. Corkins had a lot of outs going to the river as any spade would have also won it for him.
