1. Does raising PF make sense with so many previous limpers? I think it does because I have a significant pot equity edge, but I could be misapplying SSH here.

2. I think the flop bet is okay, but I should probably take the free card on the turn, right?

I'm not gonna raise from the blinds with all those limpers and I wouldn't raise with a couple more, but this raise is fine.
