No Gold For Silverman as Hausen Doubles

Three players limped in preflop and the big blind checked his option as the flop came down {J-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}. Tobias Hausen potted for 10,600 from the small blind with Joseph Silverman the only caller on the button. The last of Hausen’s 500 in chips went in on the {Q-Spades} turn and Silverman called.

Hausen: {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Silverman: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

Hausen's set of eights had the high locked up and he would just have to avoid Silverman making a low to double up. The river was the {Q-Hearts} which paired the board and made no low as Hausen doubled.
