Default AKs in the BB facing limp and raise...

Pretty solid player from the few hands he's played so far, so I wasn't sure if this was a call or raise. I'm always leary of early limpers lately. I don't know why.

Poker Stars, $4 + $0.40 NL Hold'em Tournament, 25/50 Blinds, 9 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

MP2: 2,640
CO: 1,600
BTN: 1,533
SB: 1,682
Hero (BB): 1,970
UTG: 2,755
UTG+1: 3,670
UTG+2: 3,815
MP1: 1,745

Pre-Flop: (75) dealt to Hero (BB)
2 folds, UTG+2 calls 50, MP1 raises to 200, 4 folds, Hero ???

My personal preference is to call and see flops at this stage of a tourney, but a raise is quite alright as well.

I think I am with puck on this one. Although as others have said if you feel like getting your gamble on, a raise is ok too.
