Final Table Blunder??

David,

Why not raise preflop? If you are even semi-suspicious of the preflop limper, a raise preflop would have probably shown you that you were WAY behind. You raise it up to 20k, and he most likely goes all in.

I think this is a clear raise/fold hand. Limping gives you no information, and leaves you in no mans land, regardless of if you hit your Q or J, you very well could be dominated. Congrats on the 4th, still a decent payday.
