Default Small pair on the bubble

Me (UTG) 2600
Button 2900
SB 1300
BB 3200

$100+9 on PartyPoker, I have 66 UTG with the blinds at 150-300. Forget my play which I hate in hindsight (big raise not wanting action, got reraised all-in and felt I had to call, lost to AQ), what would you do here? I'm leaning towards straight out mucking thinking about it now.

I think limping is lame, as is (always) minimum raising. But I find it hard to see how you can get away from the hand even if you make just a standard sized raise here, since 4 handed you could very easily be reraised by AK - AJ, possibly even lower, and folding with 2:1 odds as a favourite would needless to say be a disaster. And with that said, by raising you're effectively risking your whole stack to either win the blinds (450) or be evens or a big dog for all your chips.
