No reads? Shambo1 called the blind and the preflop bet, the flop bet and the all in raise without raising. Dead Money? Consider a re-raise here to put shambo1 all in for the side pot.

If it's typical to get 4 callers on this table at 5x I'd re-raise more pre-flop to something in the range of $8-12 to get heads up.

Why did you raise the flop?

As played, just stick the rest in and gamble.

Wow, I missed that. I should have put Shambo1 all-in for the rest of his stack there as he was obviously chasing the flush. Kinda stupid of me actually. Thanks.
