Anyone Have trouble with hero's line? No reads, first 10 hands. I wasn't sure if they had draws or a set or 2 pair, but I felt this was the best way to take advantage of the situation. Thoughts?

I don't mind your raise, but when you get re-raised THAT much, I'd give up the hand. With so many limpers, you're willing to put your whole tournament at risk with top pair, middling kicker and a possible straight and flush draw out against you as well. You're very likely behind or maybe 50/50 in the hand at this point, I'd wait for a better spot.
