On the last hand of Level 33 with blinds of 6,000/12,000, "MattEMenz" defended his big blind to an open of 24,000 from "spinach_kale", who was on the button.

The flop dropped {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and both players checked. The turn was {4-Diamonds} and "MattEMenz" checked again. "spinach_kale" made a bet of 25,500 and "MattEMenz" check-raised to 130,500.

"spinach_kale" three-bet to 235,500 and "MattEMenz" went all in for slightly more, quickly receiving a call for hands to be tabled.

"MattEMenz": {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}
"spinach_kale": {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

"MattEMenz" had found himself with top set and a trivial flush draw, ultimately in need of fading the outs that "spinach_kale" had to either a set of aces or the nut flush. Unfortunately for him, the river {3-Diamonds} smashed resulted in his tournament life coming crashing down as "spinach_kale" wound up filling up to the nut flush to eliminate "MattEMenz" in third place for $2,250, taking the tournament heads up in the process.
