Scotty Scoops With Aces; Shaw Exits

On a three-way flop of 4♦2♣3♠, Kevin Rolan checked, David Shaw moved all in for around 70,000, and Scotty Smith called. 

Rolan then check-raised all in for more and Smith quickly called to put himself at risk. 

Shaw: 9♠5♠
Smith: A♥A♦
Rolan: Q♥5♦

Shaw and Rolan were both drawing at the same straight with their fives, but Smith had the best of it with his aces, which also happened to be two of their outs. 

The runout of 2♥4♥ changed nothing and Smith scooped the big pot while Shaw hit the rail. 

Smith - 370,000
Rolan - 420,000
Shaw - 0
