Bryant Flops a Set to Score a Knockout
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player in early position raised to 3,000, and the player in middle position three-bet all in for his stack of 20,500. Eric Bryant in the hijack made the call, and once the rest of the table folded, it was the two players heads up, with the middle position player at risk.
Middle Position: A♣K♣ 
Eric Bryant: 9♦9♣
It was flip, but after 4♣2♥9♥ flop, the all in player would need running cards to stay in the tournament. But the 7♠ on the turn left him drawing dead, and the irrelevant 5♦ on the river completed the board, to give the pot to Bryant.
