The Lady Leads

We have a new chip leader thanks to Amanda Musumeci recently taking a pot from Ryan Olisar. The hand in question was opened by Olisar to 80,000. Musumeci then three-bet to 210,000 on the button and Olisar made the call as some cards were dealt on the felt.
Flop: 
On the flop, Olisar check-called a bet of 180,000 form Musumeci and a 
would hit the turn. This time both players would check and the 
would complete the board on the river.
This time when Olisar checked, Musumeci readied a big bet. She had over 500,000 ready to bet and started placing stacks of 100,000 out onto the felt. The tournament director classified the way she bet as a string bet and Musumeci was forced to bet 105,000 - the amount which the first small stack she put onto the felt was.
Olisar immediately called the small bet and then mucked his hand as Musumeci turned over 
. Musumeci then asked Olisar if he would have called a bigger bet. He didn't tell her the answer.
