Cowen, Chen Fall to Freiholz in Huge Three-Way Clash
Robert Cowen kicked off the action with a raise to 6,000 from middle position. Nikolaos Lampropoulos flatted in the hijack before Qi Chen three-bet to 30,000 in the cutoff.
Leon Freiholz sat in the big blind and made it 98,500 when it folded to him, seeing Cowen call before Lampropoulos folded. Chen also tossed in calling chips as the trio went to a flop of 4♣7♠5♠.
Freiholz checked to Cowen, who shoved in his 32,500 remaining chips. Chen also jammed for 85,000, and Freiholz called off with the covering stack.
Robert Cowen: Q♠10♥9♠8♥ 
Qi Chen: Q♥J♣10♦10♣
Leon Freiholz: A♠A♥Q♣4♥
Owen had a monster draw against two overpairs, but the 7♥7♣ runout did not improve him further, leaving Freiholz's aces to scoop up the enormous pot and send his two opponents out.
