Opponent Gets Left on Reading, Exits Early

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

On a flop of 1083 with three active players and about 7,000 already in the middle, both the big blind and cutoff players checked to John Reading on the button.

Reading thought briefly before deciding on a jam. The big blind got out of the way, but the player in the cutoff called off for less and sent the duo to a run out with the cards on the backs.

Cutoff: Q10
John Reading: KK

The cutoff was drawing very live, but when the turn and river came down the 6 and 8, he was left unimproved as the kings of Reading held up to take down the pot and send his opponent to the rail.
