Was it okay to shove in this spot?

edited January 2014 in The Poker Clinic
Was a DYM with four players left. At this point, everyone was shallow so there were all-ins every hand.

People will probably say go all-in pre here, but I chose to check. My question is was it okay to shove on the flop as played? I figured that because there are all-ins every hand, people are playing quite loose and therefore it was okay to shove with bottom pair and a gutshot straight draw - is that logic okay?
