Barry Rauenzahn was all in and at risk against Christopher White.
Barry Rauenzahn: A♠10♣ 
Christopher White: K♥K♦
The table reacted as Rauenzahn picked up additional outs despite White finding a set on the 9♠K♠8♠ flop. The 2♥ turn was no help, and White improved to a full house on the 9♥ river to send Rauenzahn to the rail.
