Ligeri Re-Enters

Level 3 : 0/0, 2,000 ante

"I'm going to take one more crack at this!" announced Justin Ligeri as he entered the PokerGo Studio tournament area.

"Are you having fun Justin?" asked a player on a nearby table to the cashier.

"I don't know," he quipped back.

As Ligeri took a seat on table three, he opted to use all his add-ons immediately.
