Don't look now and don't call it a comeback... yet. But the Australians are ever so slowly making progress in the uphill battle to acquire chips at this final table. Gary Benson, playing Team Australia's stack in the PLO round, was involved in a raised pot with Team China's Chau Giang. Both players checked the flop. Benson bet 4,500 on the turn and 5,000 on the river. Giang called the first bet, but not the second, allowing the Aussies to drag another pot.

The talent-deep Chinese and Aussie teams seem to have the edge over their Brazilian and Greek counterparts right now. But we have a long way to go yet.
