Level 4 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Robert Cowen
Robert Cowen

Robert Cowen got the action started with a raise to 10,000 from middle position. Youness Barakat called out of the small blind, and Alex Foxen joined the party with a call in the big blind.

The 8♦10♦9♠ flop led to a bet of 15,000 from Barakat, which led to a fold from Foxen. Cowen, however, opted to raise to 80,000 in response.

Barakat wasted little time making the fold as Cowen scooped a small pot.
