Well, lookey here!  I'd like to say it was my great skill that got me here, but truth be told these things can be a random roller coaster.  I will say that I was fortunate enough to get into a rare type of hand holding the nuts that set me up chip wise.  Mitch opened the pot for about 3 or 4x (still in the rebuy period so it could have been more).  Bill was in the cutoff and called.  I was in the big blind with KK and put in a pot size bet.  Mitch, of course, shoves and Bill comes along for all of his chips as well.  I call and we see a flop of  2QK.  Mitch had pocket dueces and Bill had pocket Queens.  Bricks on the turn and river for a big pot.  After that I just managed to stay mostly out of the way to the final table going heads up with Aram.
