This is a strong enough hand to raise.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

When I'm raising over limpers from the blinds I usually go with 1 more big blind than I would if I was on the button raising over the same number of limpers. So if there were 3 limpers, I'd raise to 8bb. I do this so if I'm in the big blind I'm putting the same amount into the pot as I would out of the blinds (since you post 1 bb before you're dealt cards).

I personally raise more over limpers than a lot of people recommend. I'll raise over 1 or 2 limpers with any broadway, any suited Ace, most suited Kings, and all kinds of other random stuff. For someone not looking to play a lot of marginal hands OOP, I think something close to your UTG+1 or UTG+2 open-raising range would be sufficient.
