Shorty won a side pot over the other 3 with Ace high to the pair on the board
So wasn't a split pot, the others had you covered so there was extra chips for them to play with. You only had 75 + 57.50 going in so you can only win 132.50 off each of the other players, you actually quadrupled up!!

The reason why this was split is because there was a side pot.
You only put a total of 132.5 chips in the pot. There were 3 other callers to your original bet so you can only win a total of 530 chips (4 x 132.5).
The rest of the chips that were bet by the other 3 players go into the side pot which you cannot win. The side pot is then contested between the other 3 players who remain in the hand.
The long and short of it is you can only win multiples of whatever you have put into the pot. In this case 4 x your initial investment of 132.5.
Hope I haven't confused you cos I'm not the best at explaining these things so I'm sure someone might explain it a bit better than me!
Bob, your reply was very clear and saved me from having to Google how a side pot works!
Good luck at the tables
