Dato Doubles Through Joyce

Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Andrea Dato opened to 120,000 from under the gun and was called by Philip Joyce in the small blind for a heads-up pot.
Joyce checked to Dato, who continued for 120,000 on the 9?K?3? flop. Joyce then check-raised to 350,000 and Dato called.
The 2? fell on the turn and Joyce used up a time extension before announcing he was all-in, which was enough to put Dato all in for his last 1,080,000.
Dato asked for a count and stuck in a call to put himself at risk.
Andrea Dato: A?K?
Philip Joyce: K?Q?
Joyce found himself drawing to three outs and the 6? bricked to award Dato the double up while Joyce was left short with just 665,000.
