$5 buy-in 200 player tourney

Hi.

I was nearly chip leader in this one but I had my 88 lose to a 77 all-in preflop for about 1/4th of my chips.

I got 4300 in MP with Kc Jd

I decide to limp.
blinds are 200/400

SB has 16,000 chips
SB calls
BB checks

Flop: 5h Jh 7h pot=1200
SB bets 600
I raise all-in for $3900

Do you like this play ?

PF raise or fold, I dont like open limping in MP, especially with these stack sizes, blinds are actually important.

On the flop I guess you could stick it in there, but I'd puke before raising. You're either a little ahead, or way the hell behind. I'm guessing he was making a semibluff with a pair/flush draw.

he had a set of 7's but no hearts. The reason I didn't try to steal blinds was that BB had about $9,000 in chips and SB had $16,000 in chips and that scares me. But should it ? I factor that in when deciding to steal blinds are not.
