I found this little tidbit at this blog on Oracle that helped me a lot:

break WHERE if COND

If you've ever used gdb, you almost certainly know about the "breakpoint" command, which lets you break at some specified point in the debugged program.

But did you know that you can set conditional breakpoints? If you add if CONDITION to a breakpoint command, you can include an expression to be evaluated whenever the program reaches that point, and the program will only be stopped if the condition is fulfilled.

After running cs50's 3x3, if you look at the log.txt, you'll be able to find a pattern that's unique to the winning scenario, and you can pass it as a condition to the break.
