Limp or raise here arguments please

Arguments for Limp:
It's early in tournament. (Tight Early/Aggressive Late)
You are in early position. (No information regarding opponents)
AK is still a drawing hand.
Arguments for Raise:
AK is a hand you want to play against one opponent and limping is invitation for other limpers.
AK although a drawing hand, is very strong. And most likely to be the best hand right now.
Aggressive poker is winning poker.
150 is only ~10% of your pot. So you have plenty of flexibility.
It's a low buy-in. Opponents are more likely to call with Ax and you'll have them dominated.
I like the raise.
