Joining Siddiqui on Day 2 is fellow team member Mukul Pahuja who rounds out the counts as the shortstack. One other notable storyline developing is that of Scott Heiligman. Heiligman late registered Day 2, took a few orbits off and first took his seat to roughly 35,000 chips. From those couple big blinds, he’s spun up a stack of 3,360,000 good enough for third overall.
