Matt Boddorf

Matt Boddorf brought to the attention of PokerNews that he doubled up in the very first hand of the day.

With the board reading A?J?8?2? on the turn, the hijack bet 4,000, which was raised by Boddorf on the button to 10,000.

The hijack immediately moved all in, committing all of their 250 big blind starting stack which was called by Boddorf.

Hijack: A?Q?
Matt Boddorf: 8?8?

Boddorf's set was ahead of the hijack's top pair. The 8? completed the board to give Boddorf quads and made him the first person to reach six-figures in the tournament.
