One Pair is Good For Half in a Four Way Pot?

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

James Lenaghan was all in on a {K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} board with three others in the hand. The rivered produced the {8-Spades} and was checked around.

Lenaghan: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a pair of sixes and an ace-seven low.
Daniel Smith: {A-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} for a pair of twos and the nut low.
Michael Deveronica: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a high card and the nut low.
Richard Monroe: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades} for a pair of twos and the worst low.

Amazingly, Lenaghan’s pair was good for the high half of the main pot. Smith and Deveronica chopped the low half of the main as well as the low half of the side pot. Smith also chopped the high half of the sidepot with Monroe.
