David Steicke opened to 12,000 with Winfred Yu make the call from the small blind to see a 
flop fall.
Both players checked as the 
rolled off on the turn and Yu again tapped the table. Steicke contemplated for a few moments before making it 14,000, only to have Yu respond with a check-raise to 44,000.
As Steicke took a long sip of his coffee, he kicked his cards to the muck to relinquish the pot to Yu.
The cards are back in the air after an enjoyable and well-earned dinner break.

We brought the PokerNews cameras out to Victoria's Yarra Valley yesterday for a day of golf (and wine tasting) with Full Tilt Pro's and qualifiers:
Four levels down, many hours to go and twenty-three players are still in contention of making the Event 8: $100,000 Challenge final table!
We kicked the day off with some dog barking, followed by a swift flow of eliminations, and many a short-stack double up.
Now however is time for some dinner, as we take a break for 75-minutes to munch down on some noodles, a hearty steak or some expensive sushi.
Your choice. Whatever it is. See you back here at 8:45 pm EST.

Erik Seidel raised to 8,000 and Jay Kinkade called from the button. Nikolay Evdakov called from the small blind and then Gus Hansen reraised to 33,000 from the big blind. Seidel and Kinkade folded before Evdakov re-potted the action to put Hansen all in. Hansen made the call.
Evdakov: 
Hansen: 
The flop came down 
and Evdakov flopped another set of fours against an opponent's overpair. The turn brought the and the river the to keep the set of fours good and send Hansen to the rail.
After the hand, Evdakov said something along the lines of, "I thought you had two overcards."
"Hansen jokingly replied, "I did have two overcards."
Evdakov is up to 485,000 and leading the way while Hansen made his way to the exit.

Smith: 
With Juanda dominated, the

Unfortunately for the member of Team Full Tilt, the river landed the 
to end his tournament as Smith moved to 95,000 in chips.
