actually if you have a big hand, limpers with bad hands don't have the odds to call you, even if you raise less than what you describe. So I don't think that you have to raise this much, unless you really want to take down the pot right now. Sweatening the pot with a big hand in position is certainly something very enjoyable. You'll be last to act after the flop anyway ... so why bother being called by weak hands ? They're just giving away more money to you in expectation, and as stacks are already rather low you don't give much implied odds to drawing hands like small pairs and suited connectors.

b/c big pairs don't play well in multiway pots. at low stakes over 95% of players don't ever go w/ implied odds b/c they don't know the concept or they don't understand it. there's a decent chance u'll end up seein the flop 3, 4, or even 5-handed w/ KK or QQ. do u really want that to happen?

ur reasonin is great, but won't work in this scenario.
