Default (UB $1+.10) What to do with these pocket eights?

UB $1+.10 Turbo (blinds are increasing every five minutes)

Blind levels are 100-200

SB t3710
BB t3900
UTG t1555.
UTG+1 t940
UTG+2 t4070.
MP1 t1790.
OrigamiSensei (MP2) t2650
MP3 t3345.
CO t1150.
Button t1570.

I have red eights in MP2. I just doubled up the hand before. UTG+1 has a habit of limping and raising pretty loosely.

UTG folds, UTG+1 limps, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds...

Blinds are moving fast, my M is less than 10. What do I do with this hand? Sorry for such a basic question but I'm never sure of the right move in these situations.

i'd just stick it in if he's gonna call you light. no use in raising to like 900, you don't want to see a flop and try to get away from the hand against loose opposition imo.

"sorry for such a basic question"

ask ask ask.
