John Reading had an uphill battle when the field redrew for the final three tables. He had less than 200,000, with blinds at 25,000-50,000 and a 50,000.

He picked a spot to dig in his heels after Jason Acosta raised 125,000 in early position, prompting Reading to go all in with 185,000. The action folded to Ankit Ahuja, who called in the big blind, and Acosta followed suit.

The dealer fanned 4?J?8?, which Acosta and Ahuja checked. The river brought 2?, which Acosta checked but Ahuja bet. Acosta folded and the cards were tabled.

Ahuja: Jx10x
Reading: A?9?

The river was a blank, which sent Reading to the rail.
