Cowboys versus Rockets?

Before the blinds went up, a short-stack was all-in holding pocket Aces and called by Anthony Pellegrini, who held pocket Kings.

A King on the flop gave Anthony a hammer-lock on the hand.  He actually flopped a full house with K 5 5 appearing on the felt, so the shortie was left looking for one of the two remaining Aces.

None appeared, however, and the shortie was busted.  Anthony chipped up to about 100k.
