Jim Bechtel Doubles Up and Then Some

Jim Bechtel raises to 6,000 from the cutoff seat. Carlos Mortensen calls from the small blind as does Tom Dwan from the big blind. After the draw, Mortensen bets 9,000. Dwan calls, but Bechtel has bigger plans. He pushes his entire stack of 42,100 out. To make the call, Mortensen would be all in. He thinks for over three minutes before finally folding. Dwan takes his time as well, but eventually calls. Bechtel shows an {8-?} {6-?} low and Dwan mucks. Bechtel more than doubles up and is now commanding a stack of approximately 100,000.
