It’s been a good month online for Daniel Charlton, who won the Super Tuesday for the second time in January. But, as he freely admits, he’s taking his shot here in Deauville. PokerStars Blog reports.
Three players including Dominique Franchi and Nandor Solyom took a flop of 
. Franchi was first to act and he cut out a bet of 1,275. The second player to act flatted, putting action on Solyom on the button. Solyom came over the top with a raise to 3,250 only to have Franchi three-bet the action to 8,275. The next player quickly folded and Solyom called to see a turn.
The turn was the 
and Franchi slowed with a check. Solyom knocked the table back, allowing the 
to finish the board. Franchi moved out one final bet of 8,700 and Solyom flicked out a single chip, signifying a call.
Franchi tabled 
for a turned pair of queens, but it was of no use against Solyom's 
for bottom set of deuces. Solyom pulled in the sizable pot and now has about 75,000 in his stack.

We saw German player Robert Auer move away from the table, and with no chips at his former spot at the table, we got the message quite clear that he wasn't going for a smoking break.
Javier Rodriguez told us that a player had opened to 700 and that Auer had made the call. Rodriguez squeezed to 2,300 and the initial raiser folded. Auer now shoved all in for about 7,000 and Rodriguez made the call holding 
.
Auer had

Omar Dahmani checked it over to David Vamplew on the river of a board reading 
.
Vamplew bet 4,400 which was close to pot and left him just over 3,000 behind. Dahmani took a minute to think about it, eventually asking Vamplew to raise his arms so he could clearly see his remaining stack. A few more moments though and Dahmani made the call.
Vamplew revealed his turned set holding 
. Could this be the hand that he needed to regain some momentum after a difficult few hours? The answer was no as Dahmani turned over his 
rivered straight.
Vamplew was crippled and open shoved the next two hands without picking up any callers. The third time it was folded to him he mucked but it will take a mighty effort to survive just Day 1a from here.
