In my opinion, the question is to limp or fold. I would fold this hand in a shorthanded game, especially from early position because you are to often only playing for half the pot.
In a fullring game this hand can be played from MP or LP for one bet, although I would prefer the ace to be suited.

You can limp. The thing about a hand like this is when you flop well, you flop a scoop so, the more the merrier.
Exactly what I though. I am looking for a high only flop where I will probably have the best hand. If the flop comes low, I can fold without much investment.
In the actual hand I raised, got 2 callers, and was forced to fold to a donk bet on a nasty flop.

Basically you are inviting variance into your play when raising here as you dont gain all that much.
