Vicky Coren was caught, “at it” by Michel Abecassis who took the pot control line from the turn onwards in a heads up hand between the two.
We approached the table as Coren check-called a 1,000 bet on a 
flop. The Team PokerStars Pro was under the gun and Abecassis was on the button in this pot that must’ve been three-bet pre flop. Both players checked the 
turn before Coren led for 2,000 on the 
river.
Abecassis took around 15 seconds to call and he knew he was good before the cards were revealed as Coren was helpless to prevent a cheeky looking smile spreading east to west across her face. She opened 
and lost out to Abecassis’ 
.

Lex Veldhuis lost a few chips during the early going, although he just now managed to claim a few back.
The hand started with a raise to 400 by Veldhuis from middle position, the bet earning him one caller a couple of seats over. The flop came 
and Veldhuis bet 550, and his opponent stuck around. Both then checked the 
turn and 
river.
Veldhuis showed his hand — 
for sixes and fours — and his opponent mucked.

It was four-way to the flop on a board of 
, James Akenhead and Team PokerStars Pro Jose 'Nacho' Barbero both checked, Mikael Guenni fired out 550 into the middle, Guilhem Delaporte made the call before Akenhead and Barbero also called.
On the 
turn, it was checked across to Delaporte who bet 1,400 but this time only Akenhead called to see the 
river where the Englishman checked a third time. Delaporte bet 2,600 and Akenhead quickly called but mucked when the Frenchman showed him 
for a full house.

The leader at the end of either Day 1 flight is unlikely to win EPT Deauville, or any major tournament for that matter. So what is the target on the opening day of an event like this? PokerStars Blog explores, with a little help from Dominik Nitsche.
At the end of the previous level, Xavier Detournel opened with a minimum raise to 200 from early position, then Emile Petit called from a couple of seats over. Davidi Kitai in late position next made it 700 to go, and it folded back to Detournel who called while Petit stepped aside.
The flop came 
. Detournel checked, and Kitai continued for 650. Detournel then quickly check-raised to 1,650, earning a look across the table from Kitai followed by a call. The turn brought the 
and a bet of 2,550 by Detournel, and Kitai called once more.
The river was the 
, and Detournel again acted without hesitation, repeating his bet of 2,550. Kitai called again, and Detournel turned over his 
for aces and deuces. But Kitai tabled 
to show a better kicker, and spotting photographer Neil Stoddart nearby grinned as he dragged the chips.
