Lim Makes Three Eights To Double

Level 11 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Chin Wei Lim was down to his last 25,000 and shoved from middle position. Action folded around to the big blind, where Luuk Gieles confirmed the amount before making the call.

Chin Wei Lim: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Luuk Gieles: {k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

Lim was posed to double as the flop dropped {j-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, but the turn {k-Hearts} improved Gieles to where Lim only had two cards left in the deck to stay alive. Luckily for him, the river {8-Hearts} was one of those two, giving him a set to improve back to the best hand and score the double as a result.
