Shak Raises?

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

A player opened to 1,500 from under the gun, a second player called in middle position and Beth Shak defended her small blind. The flop fell {k-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and both Shak and the original raiser checked to the man in the middle who fired 2,200. Shak called, the initial raiser released and the turn was the {5-Diamonds}.

Shak again checked and her opponent bet 5,500. Shak reached for two grey T5,000 chips and silently flipped them in the middle. Her opponent was confused because the bet was not enough to be a raise and argued that it should be a call. The dealer did nothing to rectify the situation and Shak shrugged, pulled back one of the chips and was contempt with just calling.

The river was the {6-Clubs} and Shak immediately moved all in. Her opponent folded even faster and Shak was pushed the pot.
