Your preflop raise was overvalued (10xbb) and you had not very good position to face a reraise like that.If you like to gamble or if it is a huge field a call should not be a huge mistake.Good luck

Although the preflop raise was too big, don't look at it as being 10xbb. Once the pot has been raised in front of you, it might be best to think in terms of the size of the pot or the size of the original raise, while obviously considering everyone's stack size.

The amount of the big blind is immediately unimportant once he raises in front of you.

P.S. It's a pretty easy fold, IMO.
