Cowboys Lasso Half of Houghton's Stack

Laurence Houghton opened for 2,000 and faced a reraise to 5,000 from a gent across the table. Houghton announced all in to cover the gent, who swiftly called with a sage nod, and Houghton's stack would be bisected by the end of the hand.

Houghton: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
All-In Gent: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Board: {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The gent with the kings gave a little fist pump while he took possession of the pot. They're at 35,000 apiece after that, but moving in opposite directions.
