Hoyt Corkins was all in and had two callers on a 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 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.
