Michael Rossitto, Big Stax XXV 1100 Champion

Rossitto started heads up at an ~2:1 disadvantage but flipped the script before the final hand of the tournament. Ciofalo opened the button to 450k and was 3-bet by Rossitto to 1.4M. Ciofalo moved all-in for ~6M and was instantly called by Rossitto.

Rossitto K♠K♦ vs Ciofalo 6♣6♥

Board: A♦3♣K♥8♣J♦

The flop essentially sealed the deal and Rossitto would be the outright winner of the 1100 Main Event. Ciofalo did the majority of the heavy lifting at the Final Table but came up just short of the title despite his impressive chip-advantage throughout the day.
