Manolea Runs Riot; Busts Pertea and Hills
Level 4
: 100/300, 300 ante
Luciana Manolea has boosted her stack significantly and sent Marius Pertea as well as Andy Hills to the rail.
According to Hills, Manolea bet a four-flush river and Pertea moved all in with 
to get called by Manolea with the 
in her hand.
Soon after, Hills clashed with Manolea and also ended up second-best. A raise to 700 by Hills was met by a three-bet to 2,600 on the button and the Brit four-bet to 6,900, Manolea called. On the 
flop, Hills checked with around 14,000 behind and Manolea glanced at his stack before betting 15,000. Hills gave it some thought and called all in.
Andy Hills: 
Luciana Manolea: 
The turn and 
river bricked off and Hills was gone.
Apparently, the duo had played in the SuperStack Side Event the previous day where he saw Manolea three-bet very frequently. "I called because I thought ace-king would have gotten it in preflop," Hills added before heading out of the tournament area.
